Rubber bumper

Damping of shocks and vibrations Rubber buffers, also called bump stops, are simple but important parts in the chassis of trucks and agricultural machinery. Their main task is to absorb the end travel of the suspension and to dampen contact between metal parts. This prevents damage to axles, leaf springs and the chassis itself under heavy loads or on uneven terrain. Specific for exhaust systems In addition to the suspension, rubber buffers are also used to support the exhaust system. A 'Bump Stop for silencer' supports the weight of the silencer and absorbs the constant vibrations from the engine. This prevents cracks from forming in the exhaust pipes or manifold due to the continuous movement during driving. Replacement to prevent consequential damage Over time, the rubber of a bump stop can harden, crack or become completely compressed. This causes it to lose its damping effect. It is important to replace worn bump stops in a timely manner. This is a small intervention that can prevent expensive repairs to the suspension or exhaust system of a truck or tractor. The right hardness and fit The febi bump stops are made with the correct rubber compound and have an exact fit. This makes sure that the damping is correctly matched to the application, whether it is buffering a heavy trailer axle or providing vibration-free suspension for an exhaust silencer. Fast delivery of these parts keeps downtime to a minimum.
