Description

Mackay Shear Instrument Isolator

Extra flexible, ideal for shear stress applications.
Resilient bearing applications for lightweight machinery, precision instruments and equipment.
Designed for the suspension of precision instruments so that they can be suspended singly or in groups on a common baseplate. For the type of instruments that either show erroneous readings or are quickly damaged by even the slightest of shocks, these isolators are constructed so that easy deflections are ensured.
Much stiffer in compression than in shear and therefore they should be installed so that the rubber is constantly in shear.
Being very suitable for low-frequency isolation, they are excellent when used to isolate vibration and or shock in such items as closed-circuit television cameras, scientific instruments, switchboards etc.
