Our DEFORM plus® elastomeric shock absorbing elements are available in a variety of sizes and configurations.

Characteristics
SHOCK ABSORBING UNITS / DEFORM plus®
DEFORM plus® Shock Absorbing Elements are one-time use damping elements for high energy absorption. They transform kinetic energy caused by an impact into deformation energy. DEFORM plus® units have the following characteristics:

High damping properties (up to 95%)
Low costs
Small installation space
Easy replacement of used elements
Maintenance-free
No corrosion
Rectangular force-travel diagram
Versatility in design
A damping element consists of a thickwalled, Cylinder of high quality thermoplastic resin. On impact, it folds/shrinks to a discus-shaped structure.

Operating conditions
-25 up to + 50 °C
Resistant to lubricants
Resistant to hydrolysis
Almost equal properties under dynamic and quasi-static loads, force Fn raised factor at dynamic load fF ≈1 + 0,075 * v (m/s)
For outdoor applications we recommend the units to be coated or suitably protected against UV-rays
Plan thread generally in the unit, do not fix by a screw nut
