Areas of application:

Sylodyn® has become established as one of the leading materials on the market for vibration isolation in rail, construction and industry applications.

Sylodyn® products:

• closed-cell elastomer
• High-resilient bearing.
• Elastic insertion pads for sleeper boots.
• Rail pads.

Sylodyn® is used as a vibration protection solution on local and inter-city railway lines, but also for isolating impact noise in floors and on stairs, as a bearing for buildings or machines, or for isolating noise between walls, floors and ceilings. Sylodyn® is a closed-cell elastomer that does not absorb water. In comparison to Sylomer®, the material offers improved dynamic properties. Five different types of Sylodyn® as well as three different types of Sylodyn® HRB HS are available from stock. Its properties can however be tailored in order to meet specific requirements.

Features and benefits:

• Pronounced spring characteristics.
• Closed cellular pore structure.
• Suitable for very high loads.
• High dynamic load capacity.
• Static range of use for standard types from 0.075 N/mm² to 1.5 N/mm², special types to 12 N/mm².
• Load peaks up to 24 N/mm².
• Very low amplitude dependence.
• Low creep tendency.
• Stiffening factor (Cdyn/Cstat) from 1.15 to 1.40.
• Proven long-term behaviour.
• Fatigue strength.
• Finely graded range (eight standard types) for optimum system design.
• Ability to provide customer-specific modifications.

Types available:

• NB.
• NC.
• ND.
• NE.
• NF.
• HRB HS 3000.
• HRB HS 6000.
• HRB HS 12 000.
