TEMAX A-Series elastomer dampers are compressed axially for maximum energy absorption. Performance approximates a hydraulic damper.
- Maximum energy absorption ranges from 18 to 26,119 in-lbs. [2 to 2,951 Nm] per stroke
- Maximum stroke ranges from 0.20 to 2.2 in. [5 to 56 mm]
- Damping efficiency up to 75%
Compressed radially, these dampers provide a longer, softer deceleration. Easily mounted to any surface, these general-purpose dampers can handle off-axis loads and high vibration conditions.
- Maximum energy absorption ranges from 15 to 3,750 in-lbs. [2 to 424 Nm]
- Maximum travel ranges from 0.59 to 2.36in. [15 to 60 mm]
- Damping efficiency up to 60%
- Maximum energy absorption ranges from 3,983 to 157,632 in-lbs. [450 to 17,810 Nm] per stroke
- Maximum stroke ranges from 2.44 to 7.80 in. [62 to 198 mm]
- Damping efficiency up to 65%
TEMAX was born in the extremely harsh and vast railroad industry. High load capacity elastomer dampers are needed to cushion the impacts typical in both freight and passenger transit coupling systems.
The wide operating temperature range and extreme durability of TEMAX is a perfect fit for the railroad industry. Railroad systems span thousands of miles over varying terrain and climates, demanding both durability and reliability. TEMAX is field-proven, through millions of miles of service to meet the extreme demands of the railroad industry.
We can cost-effectively design and test pad designs quickly to meet your exact needs. Choose your ideal Performance Curve, and we can put the numbers to it, regardless of how big or small. We have a dependable record of designing pads over one million pounds peak force within 1% accuracy through small scale testing. We can also scale products down, even at low as a few lbf.
