Shock Absorber CAVOFLEX®

CAVOFLEX® wire rope isolators are the optimal solutions for demanding shock and vibration-resistant mountings, especially when standards from the transport, railway and defence sectors have to be met.

For shock and impact-resistant storage

The CAVOFLEX® all-metal dampers are available in a wide range of several standard versions. Depending on the application and requirements, all elements are produced in our own production facilities. Only stainless steel cables are used for our CAVOFLEX® wire rope spring elements. The particular advantages of these elements compared to conventional steel springs or elastomer dampers result from their high deformation capacity, vibration damping and with a very long service life.

Application

  • Naval shipbuilding and defence
  • Armoured vehicles
  • Transport technology
  • Seismic zone

Benefits and strenghts

  • Shock-resistant with high damping
  • High temperature and media resistance
  • Compact design

Product overview

TYPE H

This type is our standard wire rope damper and can be used universally. The wire is wound in a spiral shape.

  • Load range: 1 – 2.500 kg
  • Stiffness: 4:1
  • Loadable in all directions
  • Electrically conductive
TYPE HK

This type is constructed in the same way as
type H. Due to the shorter length, the damper is space-saving but can also be used universally.

  • Load range: 1 – 1.000 kg
  • Stiffness: 4:1
  • Loadable in all directions
  • Electrically conductive
TYPE RX

In this type, wire ropes connect two discs, with the ropes clamped into the discs. The spring elements are compatible with rubber buffers.

  • Load range: 0.2 – 50 kg
  • Stiffness: 3:1
  • Loadable in all directions
  • Not electrically conductive
TYPE SX

With this type, two bars are connected by wire ropes in a star shape. The ropes are assembled by crimping the bars.

  • Load range: 0.2 – 50 kg
  • Stiffness: 3:1
  • Loadable in all directions
  • Not electrically conductive
TYPE QX

This type is specially designed for wall mounting of narrow cabinets or equipment..

  • Load range: 4 – 6.5 kg
  • Stiffness: 4:1
  • Not loadable in all directions
  • Not electrically conductive
TYPE TX

This type is ideal for small loads. Two bars are connected by wire ropes in a star shape.

  • Load range: 0.05 – 2 kg
  • Stiffness: 2:1
  • Not loadable in all directions
  • Electrically conductive
