Tico.Bolt Isolation Washer Tico S/WA

TICO S/WA Bolt Isolation Washer is used to prevent transmission of vibration and machine noise through the bolt to the surrounding area. Key Features: • Isolate bolts from a machine base. • 6mm thick with an outside diameter of three times the nominal bolt diameter. A bolt provides a direct transmission path for vibration from the machine to the floor, effectively short-circuiting the TICO pad. To prevent this, it is essential that the bolts are isolated from the machine base. This is achieved using TICO Collars. Although the vast majority of machinery plant can be secured by TICO Pads and Adhesive, cases where bolts might be employed are where the centre of gravity falls outside the machine base as with an inclinable power press, radial drill, or where the centre of gravity is high. In these applications, TICO S/WA Washers should also be used to prevent transmission of machine noise and vibration through the bolt to the surrounding area. It is recommended that the nuts not be over tightened so as to firmly locate the machine without applying further compression to the TICO Pads.
