Elastomeric bearing pads are vital components in modern infrastructure, providing exceptional support and durability for bridges, buildings, and other critical structures. Our company has been a trusted manufacturer of high-performance elastomeric bearing pads for over a decade, and we're here to share our expertise and help you make informed decisions.
Elastomeric bearing pads are typically made from natural or synthetic rubber and are designed to absorb and distribute loads while accommodating structural movement and vibrations. They are highly resilient, can withstand extreme temperatures, and have a long lifespan.
Type | Material | Applications |
---|---|---|
Plain Elastomeric Bearing Pads | Natural or synthetic rubber | Bridges, buildings, industrial structures |
Laminated Elastomeric Bearing Pads | Layers of rubber and metal plates | High-load applications, seismic isolation |
Reinforced Elastomeric Bearing Pads | Embedded steel rods or fibers | Heavy machinery, bridges with high dynamic loads |
Elastomeric bearing pads offer numerous benefits, including:
Benefit | Impact |
---|---|
Load transfer and distribution | Evenly distributes loads, preventing structural damage |
Vibration isolation | Reduces noise and vibrations, improving comfort and safety |
Thermal stability | Withstands extreme temperatures, ensuring structural integrity |
Durability | Long service life, reducing maintenance and replacement costs |
Cost-effectiveness | Affordable compared to alternative bearing systems |
