About Engine Mountings
Engine Mountings:
An engine mount must satisfy two essential but conflicting criteria. First, it should be stiff and highly damped to control the idle shake and engine mounting resonance over Hz. Also, it must be able to control, like a shock absorber, the motion resulting from quasistatic load conditions such as travel on bumpy roads, abrupt vehicle acceleration or deceleration, and braking and cornering. Second, for a small amplitude excitation over the higher frequency range, a compliant but lightly damped mount is required for vibration isolation and acoustic comfort, like a conventional rubber mount.
An automotive engine-body-chassis system is typically subjected to unbalanced engine forces, uneven firing forces especially at the idling speeds, dynamic excitations from gearboxes and accessories, and road excitation. Since design trends have been towards compact and efficient automobiles, engine-to-frame weight ratio and engine force densities have increased. Engine mountings are designed to achieve better vibration isolation, smooth vehicle movement, and noise reduction. Our mountings are so designed that the load deflection graph is well defined and the spring constants is specified depending upon vibration intensity and engine load. The length of time for which an mount is expected to function effectively is another strong determining factor in the selection or design process. The Polymers of superior grades assures complete durability and long life of the Component. Engine Mountings, Transmission Mountings, Gear Box Mounts, Radiator Mounts, Suspension Mounts, Strut Mounts and Hydro Mounts, which are utilized in highly demanding areas of automobiles and general industries are produced using advanced Technology.
Superior Corrosion ResistanceOur engine mountings feature coated metal parts that effectively protect against rust and corrosion, even in challenging environments. This ensures optimal performance and longevity, making them reliable for prolonged use in a variety of automotive applications.
Extended Operating LifeDesigned to deliver a service life exceeding 50,000 km or up to three years under normal driving conditions, these mounts reduce the need for frequent replacements and lower overall maintenance costs. Robust materials ensure consistent performance throughout their lifespan.
Precision Shock AbsorptionUtilizing a premium NR (natural rubber) compound and engineered for a durometer of 60 5 Shore A, these mountings efficiently dampen engine vibrations and movement. The result is enhanced driving comfort and reduced wear on engine components.
FAQs of Engine Mountings:
Q: How do these engine mountings benefit vehicle performance?
A: These engine mountings absorb vibrations and reduce engine movement, ensuring smoother driving and protecting crucial engine components from excess wear and potential damage.
Q: What makes these mountings corrosion resistant?
A: The engine mountings are constructed with coated metal casings that provide excellent resistance against corrosion and rust, ensuring longevity even in humid or harsh operating environments.
Q: When should I consider replacing my engine mountings?
A: It is recommended to replace engine mountings after 50,000 km or 3 years of normal use, or if you notice increased vibrations, excessive engine movement, or visible deterioration in the mounts.
Q: Where are these engine mountings manufactured?
A: These products are proudly made in India, using premium-quality natural rubber and high-grade coated metal to meet stringent international standards for performance and reliability.
Q: What is the installation process for these mounts?
A: Installation is straightforward for professional technicians, involving removal of old mounts and direct fitting of new ones, thanks to their OEM compatibility and standard sizing. Custom sizes are also available if required.
