Water Resistance Sorbothane

Shock & Vibration Protection in Wet Environments

Market

Industrial & Manufacturing Equipment

Product

A material innovation that provides Sorbothane shock and vibration protection in any wet environment application.

Challenge

Independent design engineers asked for a solution when faced with the challenge of protecting machinery life and performance in consistently wet conditions.

Solution

The Sorbothane Engineering Team developed Water-Resistant Sorbothane, which is a material that is resistant to water while still maintaining its ability to decrease shock and control vibration. Water-Resistant Sorbothane absorbs shock in damp situations, provides vibration control in wet conditions, and is not a temporary coating or film covering.
