What is the SLF SE132 anti-vibration mounting?
The Paulstra SLF SE132 anti-vibration mounting is a compact mounting designed to isolate lightweight equipment from vibrations and shocks.
Available in natural rubber (NR) or silicone, it features zinc-plated steel parts bonded to the elastomer to improve fatigue resistance.
With a natural frequency ranging from 10 to 25 Hz, the SLF is particularly suitable for electronic equipment, on-board equipment and small rotating machines.
How does the SLF SE132 mounting work?
The SLF provides isolation in several directions of excitation. Its axial-to-radial stiffness ratio is 3:1, combining anti-vibration flexibility with mounting stability.
Depending on the application, the mounting can operate in compression, shear or roll. It can also withstand shock loads within the limits specified for the range.
What are the advantages of the SLF mounting?
✅ Suitable for low loads: designed particularly for electronic components and lightweight equipment.
✅ Several elastomers available: natural rubber or silicone versions depending on operating conditions.
✅ Compact design: easy to integrate into small equipment.
✅ Vibration and shock protection: suitable for operation in compression, shear and roll.
What applications is the SLF SE132 mounting suitable for?
The SLF is particularly suitable for lightweight electronic equipment such as hard drives, electronic circuit boards and on-board systems. It can also support small rotating machines such as pumps, fans or electric motors.
How to choose your SLF SE132 mounting?
- Load: select the reference according to the applied load and direction of excitation.
- Elastomer: choose between natural rubber and silicone according to the operating conditions.
- Hardness: several hardnesses are available to adapt the mounting stiffness to the load.
- Fixing: three configurations are available: mixed, male/male and female/female.
How can mounting stability be improved?
System stability can be improved by inclining the mountings at 45° towards the centre of gravity of the equipment to be isolated.
This arrangement can be particularly useful when the equipment is subjected to loads in several directions.
