Shock Mounts

LORD Corporation designs, manufactures and markets a wide variety of mounts for practically everything that vibrates or is subject to dynamic forces. This Shock Mount Selection Program has been designed to help you select mounts used in applications such as:

Shipping containers
Transportation packaging
Disk drives
Measuring instruments
Construction and agricultural equipment
Electronic devices and control panels
Meeting drop test requirements

This program is an engineering analysis tool that is intended to assist in the selection of elastomeric mounts to isolate shock inputs in general industrial applications. The Shock Mount Selector offers a choice of solutions which are based on fairly broad assumptions and minimal input about your application. The analysis is based on a single degree of freedom analysis (one axis only).

We use a database which contains properties of over 400 mounts. These properties, combined with information about your application, are used to recommend possible part numbers that would provide the best shock isolation solution. However, these solutions may not fit the exact requirements of your application. For more exact calculations, please complete and submit our Industrial Application Analysis Form.
