Carrying a maximum load of 780 kg with a controlled deflection of just 10 mm, this 60 x 40 mm Female Flat Buffer with M12 thread (6040FFB12-70) is the firmest grade in the 60 x 40 mm flat buffer range, engineered for applications where high load capacity and minimal movement are the primary requirements. At 70 Shore A, it holds machinery firmly under heavier loads, resisting displacement and containing shock energy rather than allowing significant travel. Constructed with rubber-to-metal bonding, the buffer absorbs and dissipates impact energy transmitted by external moving components, reducing the force transferred to surrounding structures and machinery frames. This firm grade is particularly suited to applications where impact forces are substantial and positional stability under load is critical, the rubber compound carries load primarily in compression, with the bonded metal insert providing a secure M12 female threaded fixing point for direct integration into fabricated assemblies or structural members. Typical applications include construction equipment, industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, commercial vehicles, and power generation plant, environments characterised by heavy moving masses, repetitive shock cycles, and a need to protect both the machine and its surrounding structure. The 70 Shore A grade is the correct choice where softer grades would deflect excessively or fail to restrain the mounted component adequately. It also contributes to improved operator comfort by attenuating transmitted shock before it reaches the operator environment, and extends machinery service life by protecting adjacent components from repeated high-load impacts.

A. The buffer measures 60 mm diameter by 40 mm height (D x H: 60 x 40) and is fitted with an M12 female threaded insert.
A. The 6040FFB12-70 carries a maximum load of 780 kg with a deflection of 10 mm, reflecting the high load capacity and minimal movement characteristic of the 70 Shore A firm grade.
A. Shore A is the standard scale for measuring rubber hardness. At 70 Shore A, this is the firmest grade in the 60 x 40 mm flat buffer range. Harder grades carry higher loads with less movement, making this grade the correct choice where heavy loads, significant shock forces, or positional stability under load are required. Softer grades offer greater deflection and are better suited to lighter loads or sensitive vibration isolation.
A. The flat buffer range is designed for construction equipment, industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, commercial vehicles, elevators, and power generation plant. The 70 Shore A grade is particularly applicable where heavy moving masses and repetitive shock cycles demand a firm, high-load buffer.
A. The buffer uses rubber-to-metal bonded construction. It works by absorbing and dissipating energy from impact shocks generated by external moving components, reducing the force transferred to the machine structure and surrounding assemblies. The M12 female threaded metal insert provides a secure fixing point.
A. Yes. The 60 x 40 mm M12 flat buffer is also available in 45 Shore A (6040FFB12-45) and 60 Shore A (6040FFB12-60) for applications requiring greater deflection or lighter loads. Larger M16-threaded formats are also available: 100 x 100 mm (100100FFB16), 100 x 30 mm (10030FFB16), 100 x 40 mm (10040FFB16), 100 x 50 mm (10050FFB16), 100 x 55 mm (10055FFB16), and 100 x 60 mm (10060FFB16).
A. Yes — stainless steel metalwork and oil-resistant or high-temperature rubber compounds are available on request, along with additional and custom sizes beyond the standard range.
