VMC Group GC Series Plate & Cup Low Profile Elastomeric Isolators provide superior shock and vibration isolation for a variety of applications, environments and mounting configurations.
The GC Series are available in both cup or plate configurations. These isolators offer a low profile, lightweight, multi-attitude design for flexible installation in numerous locations. All metal surfaces have a corrosion-resistant coating for extra protection and durability.
Two different elastomeric element types are available in the GC Series. The standard elastomeric element that offers operating temperatures of -20⁰F to +180⁰F and the silicone elastomeric element that offers operating temperatures of -80⁰F to +300⁰F. Both elastomers resist oils, ozone and most solvents - providing optimum resilience in difficult conditions.
Special variations to the GC Series include flush top and bottom surfaces, through-hole or countersunk hole on the GC2, and high damped custom color-coded materials.
