Mechanical comparison
Record load per mount, number and orientation of mounts, height, width, hole pattern, cable diameter and allowable deflection.
Replacement selection guide
Wire rope isolator replacement and cross-reference
Wire rope isolators are not selected with hydraulic shock-absorber energy ratings. The required data are static load, axis, deflection, shock spectrum, natural frequency, mounting and environment.
Dynamic and environmental comparison
Provide shock input, vibration range, target isolation, temperature, corrosion, fluids and service-life expectations.
