Vibration Isolation and Pneumatic Cylinders with Firestone Air Springs
Firestone™ air springs are perfectly suited for vibration isolation and also serve as a valuable alternative to short-stroke hydraulic solutions required in pressing or lifting operations. Firestone™ air springs are ideal for harsh, dirty environments, requiring no maintenance or lubrication, and offering a long service life.
Vibration Isolation: Firestone Airmount™
The Firestone Airmount™ supports and isolates your sensitive components from external vibrations or isolates your vibrating machinery from its surroundings. These air springs also reduce the structural transmission of noise. Firestone Airmount™ systems are suitable for loads ranging from 45 kg to 45 tons, providing better isolation and damping properties than any other form of vibration isolation.
FR Series
This is the original Firestone™ series, featuring multiple mounting options, including mounting plates with 2 or 4 female mounting holes or mounting flanges.
Air springs are constructed from layers of rubber reinforced with specially designed fabric. The outer layer is specially treated for wear resistance.
