Product Number: 2012MFB18-60

Sitting at the mid-point of the 20x12mm Male Flat Buffer range, SKU 2012MFB18-60 delivers a balanced 60 Shore A hardness with a maximum load capacity of 59.5 kg and a controlled deflection of 3.0 mm, a combination suited to installations where moderate load support and consistent vibration isolation must work in equal measure. The M6x18 threaded stud enables straightforward fitment across a broad variety of machine frames and chassis without specialist tooling. Rubber-to-metal bonded construction forms the foundation of this buffer, integrating the elastomeric element firmly with its metal hardware to ensure reliable load transfer and long service life. At 60 Shore A, the rubber compound sits between the greater movement of softer grades and the higher rigidity of firmer ones, offering a practical compromise for general-purpose mounting duties. The flat buffer geometry allows it to absorb and dissipate energy whether the primary loading direction is compressive, in shear, or a combination of both. This grade suits the broad middle ground of machinery mounting: industrial machinery that operates under moderate cyclic loading, agricultural equipment where a degree of compliance is needed alongside structural support, power generation installations, and commercial vehicle applications. It can function both as a shock-absorbing bump stop against an impacting secondary component and as a direct-contact elastic element between mating surfaces, improving machinery lifespan, protecting surrounding structures, and contributing to operator comfort.

A. The buffer measures 20 mm in diameter by 12 mm in height, with an M6x18 threaded stud. Maximum load capacity is 59.5 kg and deflection under load is 3.0 mm.
A. This buffer is rated 60 Shore A, a medium hardness grade. At this rating it provides a balance between load-carrying capacity and elastic deflection, making it suitable for general-purpose machinery mounting where neither extreme flexibility nor maximum stiffness is required.
A. Applications include industrial machinery, agricultural equipment, commercial vehicles, and power generation installations. The buffer is also used across construction and off-highway, marine, railway and mass transit, and automotive sectors.
A. The rubber-to-metal bonded construction transfers load from the threaded stud into the elastomeric element, which absorbs and dissipates energy. It can be loaded in compression, shear, or a combination, functioning as a bump stop against an impacting component or as a direct-contact elastic element between surfaces.
A. Yes. The 20x12mm M6x18 Male Flat Buffer is also available in 45 Shore A (SKU 2012MFB18-45) for greater deflection at lighter loads, and 70 Shore A (SKU 2012MFB18-70) for higher-load, lower-movement duties.
A. Yes. Stainless steel metalwork and oil-resistant or high-temperature rubber compounds are available on request, as are additional and custom sizes. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
