Balancing isolation against structural support, this 30x40mm Female Flat Buffer with M8 thread and 60 Shore A rubber sits at the practical midpoint of the range, neither biased toward maximum deflection nor maximum rigidity, but calibrated for the broad middle ground of machinery mounting. Rated to a maximum load of 80.0 kg with a controlled deflection of 10.0 mm, it is well suited to lighter, compact or sensitivity-conscious installations where a predictable, moderate response to vibration and impact is required. Constructed using rubber-to-metal bonded technology, the buffer absorbs and dissipates energy through direct contact with a surface or as an elastic element between components. The medium 60 Shore A hardness grade delivers a working balance: enough compliance to isolate moderate vibration effectively, with sufficient stiffness to maintain positional stability under the applied load. Mounts of this type may be loaded in shear, compression, or a combination of both, making them adaptable across a variety of installation geometries. Applications for this grade and size span industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, commercial vehicles, construction equipment, and elevators, wherever a component demands controlled cushioning rather than the extremes of soft isolation or firm restraint. The 30x40mm envelope and M8 thread make it a practical choice for space-constrained sub-assemblies and lighter structural connections. Industries served include power generation, marine, railway and mass transit, automotive, and agriculture. Regular use of correctly specified buffers improves machinery lifespan, protects surrounding structures, and enhances operator comfort.

A. The 3040FFB08-60 Female Flat Buffer has a maximum load rating of 80.0 kg and a deflection of 10.0 mm, making it suitable for moderate-load applications where a balanced vibration response is required.
A. 60 Shore A is a medium hardness grade that sits between softer and firmer rubber compounds. It provides a practical balance of vibration isolation and load-bearing stiffness — delivering more compliance than harder grades while maintaining positional stability under load. Softer grades (such as 45 Shore A) offer greater deflection and better isolation at lower loads; harder grades (such as 70 Shore A) carry higher loads with less movement.
A. This buffer is suited to industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, commercial vehicles, construction equipment, and elevators — particularly in lighter, compact, or vibration-sensitive installations where a moderate, controlled cushioning response is needed.
A. The rubber-to-metal bonded construction absorbs and dissipates energy when a moving or vibrating component applies load. It can function as an elastic element in direct contact with a surface, cushioning impact shocks and reducing transmitted vibration to improve machinery lifespan, protect surrounding structures, and improve operator comfort.
A. Yes. Flat buffers of this type may be loaded in shear, compression, or a combination of both, allowing them to be used across a range of installation geometries.
A. Yes. The 30x40mm M8 Female Flat Buffer is available in 45 Shore A (SKU: 3040FFB08-45) for softer isolation and greater deflection at lower loads, and 70 Shore A (SKU: 3040FFB08-70) for stiffer, higher-load applications.
A. Yes. Stainless steel metalwork and oil-resistant or high-temperature rubber compounds, as well as additional and custom sizes, are available on request.
A. Standard UK mainland delivery is 3–5 working days. Next-day delivery is available on most products and will appear as an option at checkout where eligible.
