Mounting Systems

Poly Flex Isolation Cores

Poly Flex isolation cores are modular, allowing you to order different durometers (hardness). Each isolation core produces a specific vibration isolation characteristic, while both the shape and durometer of the Poly Flex core maximize vibration isolation and load-carrying capability.

Poly Flex analyses the engine set-up or equipment to be mounted and tailor the core to isolate the maximum levels of vibration and durability. This way, you will know how the isolator will perform before installation.

Core Replacement & Engine Mount Assembly Procedure

Adjustable Mounting Systems

Poly Flex adjustable mounting systems are designed specifically for high thrust load installations where height adjustment is required.

Primarily used in marine and high-performance applications including pilot boats, crew patrol boats, high speed RHIBS, fishing and dive vessels, pleasure and sailing vessels.

  • Moulded from light weight heat cured polymer alloys which are long lasting and oil/fuel resistant.
  • Fail-safe/captured design.
  • Easy replacement of core / hardware.
  • No electrolysis between aluminium and steel structures.
  • Can handle shock and impact due to a 400% stretch factor in base material.
  • Controls thrust in all directions due to core design.
  • All metal components are SA5 Cobalt Zinc Coated to inhibit rust for extended life.

Gen Set Mounting Systems

Poly Flex Gen Set mounting systems have the same structure and fabrication as the adjustable mounting systems, but do not include the adjusting stud component. Shims may be required for fine-tuning adjustment.

Gen Set mounting systems are designed for marine, generators, water makers and industrial machinery.

  • Moulded from light weight heat cured polymer alloys which are long lasting and oil/fuel resistant.
  • Fail-safe / captured design.
  • Easy replacement of core / hardware.
  • No electrolyses between aluminium and steel structures.
  • Can handle shock and impact due to a 400% stretch factor in base material.
  • Controls thrust in all directions due to core design
  • All metal components are SA5 Cobalt Zinc Coated to inhibit rust for extended life.

General Purpose Mounting Systems

Poly Flex general purpose mounts are a cost-effective choice for many different applications where the installation may or may not have thrust, lateral and vertical movement. These mounts are moulded from heat cured polymer alloys which have excellent durability, longevity, and oil/fuel resistance.

Used in general applications where vibration can be an issue, including small / large pumps, electrical boards, water makers, air conditioning units, compressors, generators, mobile light towers, forklift engines, material handling equipment, operator’s cabins, construction, and mining equipment.

Hull To Deck Joining Systems

Poly Flex Hull to Deck Joining Systems are a fail-safe isolation mount providing vibration and electrical isolation of superstructure and wheelhouses from vessel hulls. Constructed from heat cured engineering polymer alloys with stainless-steel components to prevent rot and rust. These mounts can be tuned by changing the working core to suit different applications. Dimensions, including height, can be varied in some cases. Tested in all axes including inversion.

Frequently used in pilot boats, crew vessels and ferries.
