Reinforced with fabric, so extreme compression won’t deform them. These pads protect surfaces from impact, dampen vibration and noise, and act as stable connection points. Use them to mount forging hammers, stamping presses, rock crushers, shearing machines, vibratory feeders, and other heavy machinery. They also create uniform weight-bearing areas between steel and concrete columns, even if there are surface irregularities. All meet MIL-C-882, which tests the quality, density, capacity, compression, deflection, and oil- and mold-resistance of materials used in military construction. Commonly known as bearing pads.
