Product Overview
A rubber buffer with screw attachment creates a retained compliant contact point within a matching assembly. The screw should locate the body so the opposing part meets its intended face. An attachment that is secure but offset can leave a thin edge receiving most of the contact.
Check the screw's receiving feature and usable engagement before fitting. The body should not be twisted to force alignment, and the surrounding space must allow the intended deformation. Select the silicone formulation and geometry for the actual environment and duty rather than assuming a particular damping value from the material name.
Inspect contact through the assembly's working movement after installation. The buffer should remain clear of nearby sharp features that could cut its sidewall. During maintenance, look for an angled wear patch, loose fastening or damage where rubber meets the screw feature. If the contact path has shifted, correct its alignment before replacing the buffer, so the new part does not immediately inherit the same concentrated loading.
- Material options
- Custom silicone compound; formulation and geometry developed together.
- Hardness selection
- Silicone options: 20–80 Shore A. The body should not be twisted to force alignment, and the surrounding space must allow the intended deformation.
- Custom geometry
- Check the screw's receiving feature and usable engagement before fitting.
- Fit evaluation
- Inspect contact through the assembly's working movement after installation.
- Color & OEM
- Custom colors; part identification clear of mounting seats and loaded faces.

Ordering this custom component
Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?
Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.
Which details should be agreed before tooling?
Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.
Can a sample help define the replacement?
A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.
How is the quotation for this part determined?
The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
