VIBSORB ROF-PAD bearing pads were originally designed for use as tie plate pads for the railroad industry. These random oriented fiber (ROF) pads provide compensation for surface irregularities and non-parallel load bearing surfaces in precast concrete and building and construction applications. The reinforced elastomeric bearing pads can also be provided with a Teflon® surface for use in expansion bearings and pipe slides. VIBSORB ROF-PAD pad is scientifically constructed to give years of service under severe operating conditions.

KEY FEATURES/BENEFITS

• Pads can withstand compressive loads up to 7,000 psi.
• Pads meet D.O.T. and federal specifications for reinforced elastomeric pads and bedding of masonry plates.

FAQS

Can the VIBSORB ROF-PAD bearing pad material be cut to size in the field?
Yes, if configured with care by using a band saw with a fine tooth, narrow angle saw blade configuration.

Can holes or slots be cut in the field?
Yes. Holes or slots can be cut in the field using a narrow angle, fine tooth hole saw.

How is VIBSORB ROF-PAD material different from the MIL C 882 Vibration pad material?
VIBSORB ROF-PAD pad material has a lower durometer (80 duro).

What adhesive should I use to affix VIBSORB ROF-PAD pad to concrete or steel?
Benchmark recommends our #700 epoxy adhesive for optimal adherence.
