With a rated maximum load of 82.0 kg with a controlled deflection of just 3.0 mm, the 2012MFB18-70 Male Flat Buffer delivers firm, high-resistance cushioning in a compact 20 x 12 mm body with an M6 x 18 stud. At 70 Shore A, this is the hardest grade in the 20 x 12 mm flat buffer range, purpose-built for applications where the mount must hold its position under heavy or repeated impact rather than yield significantly under load. The rubber-to-metal bonded construction ensures the elastomeric element remains securely integrated with the steel stud throughout its service life. The flat buffer geometry provides low-cost shock and vibration absorption, acting either as a bump stop against secondary moving objects or as an elastic element in direct surface contact. Energy is absorbed and dissipated through the rubber body, reducing transmitted force and protecting both the host machine and surrounding structures. At 70 Shore A, this grade is best matched to heavier-duty installations where minimal movement is a requirement: restraining components on commercial vehicles, controlling end-stops on construction and agricultural equipment, and providing firm impact buffers in power generation and industrial machinery environments. Where operators or structures must be shielded from shock loads rather than from fine vibration, this firm grade carries the load with confidence. Industries served by this buffer family include construction and off-highway, agriculture, marine, railway and mass transit, automotive, and military and defence.

A. The buffer body measures 20 mm diameter by 12 mm height (D x H: 20 x 12 mm), with an M6 x 18 mm male stud (d x L).
A. The 2012MFB18-70 is rated to a maximum load of 82.0 kg with a deflection of 3.0 mm, reflecting the firm characteristics of the 70 Shore A rubber grade.
A. At 70 Shore A, this is the firmest grade available in the 20 x 12 mm flat buffer range. Harder grades carry higher loads with less movement, making this grade well-suited to applications requiring controlled end-stops, shock restraint, or firm buffering under heavier or repeated impact.
A. Male Flat Buffers in this family are used across construction and off-highway equipment, agricultural machinery, commercial vehicles, industrial machinery, elevators, power generation, marine, railway and mass transit, automotive, and military and defence applications.
A. The rubber-to-metal bonded construction absorbs and dissipates energy on impact, reducing the force transmitted to the host machine and surrounding structures. It can act as a bump stop against secondary moving objects or as an elastic element in direct surface contact, improving machinery lifespan and protecting structures.
A. Yes — the same 20 x 12 mm geometry with M6 stud is also available in 45 Shore A (2012MFB18-45) and 60 Shore A (2012MFB18-60) for applications requiring greater deflection or improved isolation at lower loads.
A. Yes — stainless steel metalwork and oil-resistant or high-temperature rubber compounds are available on request, as are additional and custom sizes.
