Custom Made Rubber Block | Rubber Damper for Heavy Machine Foot

Manufactured by RUBASIA RUBBERTECH INDUSTRIES – Trusted Supplier in Sabah, Sarawak & Brunei

RUBASIA RUBBERTECH INDUSTRIES is a leading manufacturer and supplier of Custom Made Rubber Blocksand Rubber Dampers for Heavy Machine Foot, delivering precision-engineered vibration control and shock absorption solutions to industries across Borneo: Sabah, Sarawak, and Brunei Darussalam.

 

Unlike mass-produced rubber parts, our custom dampers are developed to exact specifications — from material hardness (durometer), chemical resistance, and dimensional tolerance to shape, mounting method, and load-bearing capacity. This ensures maximum performance, durability, and compatibility with your equipment, whether it’s a palm oil mill in Lahad Datu, a shipyard in Miri, a hydro dam in Kapit, or an offshore oil rig in Seria, Brunei.

 

🔹 Understanding Rubber Blocks & Dampers

 

What They Are:

Rubber blocks (also known as rubber vibration dampers, machine foot pads, or rubber mounts) are mechanical interface components placed under machines or structural supports to:

• Absorb shock & impact – prevents sudden loads from damaging machines or concrete foundations.
• Isolate vibration – ensures that motor or machine oscillations do not spread to surrounding systems.
• Dampen noise – significantly reduces operational sound levels in factories and workshops.
• Protect equipment & structures – extends the service life of machinery and reduces downtime.

 

How They Work:

Rubber’s elastic deformation property allows it to compress under load and rebound back, dissipating energy as heat. This makes it an ideal material for dynamic vibration control in industrial, automotive, marine, and energy applications.

 

🔹 Technical Features of Custom Rubber Blocks

• Material Options
  • Natural Rubber (NR): Excellent resilience and flexibility.
  • Nitrile Rubber (NBR): Oil, fuel, and grease resistant – suitable for engine mounts.
  • EPDM Rubber: Weather, ozone, and heat resistant – perfect for outdoor machinery.
  • Neoprene Rubber: Balanced oil, ozone, and abrasion resistance.
  • Silicone Rubber: High-temperature stability, suitable for specialized environments.
• Hardness (Durometer)
  • Soft (30–40 Shore A): Best for delicate vibration isolation.
  • Medium (50–60 Shore A): General industrial use.
  • Hard (70–80 Shore A): Load-bearing heavy equipment applications.
• Shapes & Sizes
  • Standard: Cylindrical, square, rectangular, conical.
  • Custom: Engineered shapes based on CAD drawings or customer samples.
  • Sizes: From small 50mm pads for light machinery to oversized 500mm+ blocks for heavy-duty cranes.
• Mounting Configurations
  • Bolt-on with threaded inserts.
  • Flat base pads.
  • Adhesive-backed versions.
  • Custom flanged or embedded steel-plate reinforced types.

 

🔹 Manufacturing Process

1. Engineering Consultation – Our technical team reviews your machine’s load, vibration frequency, and operating environment.
2. Material & Hardness Selection – Best rubber compound is chosen based on oil, water, chemical, or temperature exposure.
3. Mold Fabrication – Custom steel molds are precision-engineered for accurate shapes.
4. Rubber Molding Process – Compression, injection, or transfer molding used depending on complexity.
5. Testing & QC – Each batch tested for tensile strength, tear resistance, rebound resilience, compression set, hardness tolerance.
6. Delivery & Technical Support – Supplied across Sabah, Sarawak, Brunei with guidance on installation.
