Series EF bearings can be used for bridges, viaducts, buildings, crane rail pads, seismic and vibration isolation pads, and shock-absorbing applications.
Series EF bearings are made of multiple layers of 8-ounce cotton duck with 64 folds per 25-mm thickness, impregnated and bonded with a top quality elastomer and compressed into resilient pads of uniform thickness by compression and vulcanization.
This pad is generally accepted as a substitute for the Goodco Series EF with a significantly shorter lead time.
Vibsorb pads are a cotton duck “fabric reinforced” bearing pad used in vibration control. The multiple laminations of rubber and fabric allow for large loading with minimal creep and virtually no shape factor associated with unreinforced bearing pad materials.
Benchmark MIL C 882 pads are commonly used as a structural bearing element accommodating surface irregularity and rotations between load bearing faces. MIL C 882 material is also used for vibration and shock applications.
Thin Sliders – Series T, TP, TPE, TT & TRR
This line of bearings fulfills the requirements for low profile inexpensive
slide units. Series T bearings are used in buildings, parking garages,
subways, etc., where slabs are supported on bearing walls or corbels.
They are used under light loads and small movements while no rotation
capacity is required.
