Every bicycle handlebar master who suffers from unevenness on the road has probably encountered spring shock absorbers. However, this article will not tell you how to choose a shock absorber for your driving style or how to get more travel. Because the name spring shock absorber also covers a completely different, specialized solution - a vibro-isolator that dampens vibrations and noises, preventing their transmission to the building structure. It is not affected by problems such as a limited adjustment range or slow return to the starting position. Spring shock absorbers for devices and systems are widely used in industry. What exactly?

How to properly set the spring shock absorber?
The industrial spring shock absorber is a specialized solution for professional applications. The universal setting instructions available on the Internet apply to bicycle accessories, not installation. A spring shock absorber is placed between the supporting structure and the device that produces noise and vibration. There are special holes in the base that facilitate the positioning and anchoring of the shock absorbers to the ground. The flexible filling prevents dirt and solids from entering the structure and prevents damage to the spring due to pressure/load. The profiled metal base guarantees the desired stiffness.
The use of spring shock absorbers in industry
Mechanical vibrations are a problem for many building users. Shocks and noises of varying intensity often come from devices and machines installed in buildings and attached to ceilings, floors or walls. Construction and engineering companies are paying more and more attention to the issue of soundproofing mechanical devices and damping shocks. Vibration-isolating elements, such as spring shock absorbers, effectively reduce the transmission of noise and vibration to other parts of the building.
Their use improves the quality of life of users and affects their health and safety. It is worth knowing that undamped vibrations may reduce the strength of the building structure, which may have disastrous consequences. Modern, properly selected shock absorption is able to absorb up to 99% of unwanted vibrations, and its implementation constitutes only 1-2% of the cost of the entire installation.
Spring shock absorbers are standardly used in:
- heat pumps,
- external air conditioning devices,
- acoustic ceilings,
- backup generators,
- pipelines,
- pumps and compressors,
- ventilation ducts,
- refrigeration and chilled water units,
- internal fans,
- windmills,
- industrial equipment.
Vibration isolators with springs available on the market differ, among others: dimensions, performance parameters and dynamic properties, including damping coefficient, maximum transient overload at maximum load and permissible operating temperature.
Spring shock absorbers at the Onninen wholesaler
Spring shock absorbers at the Onninen electrical wholesaler are efficient and highly wear-resistant vibration-isolating elements that meet the requirements of various projects, regardless of their size and complexity. The largest range of products are models dedicated to light devices with low rotational speeds. You can order from us a good spring shock absorber for a compressor, pump, refrigeration system, air conditioner, splitter, swimming pool equipment or industrial dehumidifier. We offer vibration isolators from the renowned Walraven company, which has been operating on the market since 1942. The solutions it provides have a powder-coated body, ensuring maximum corrosion resistance.
