Product Number: 2030MFB18-45
Sensitive installations and lighter-duty machinery demand a mount that prioritises isolation over restraint, and the 20 x 30 mm Male Flat Buffer (SKU 2030MFB18-45) is engineered precisely for that purpose. Rated to a maximum load of 21.5 kg with a deflection of 7.5 mm, this 45 Shore A soft-grade buffer offers the greatest compliance within the Male Flat Buffer range at this form factor, absorbing and dissipating energy where movement under load is not merely acceptable but desirable for effective vibration attenuation. Rubber-to-metal bonded construction combines a natural rubber element with a captive M6 x 18 mm threaded stud for straightforward, direct installation. The low-profile 20 mm diameter by 30 mm height geometry keeps packaging compact, making the buffer well suited to equipment where envelope constraints rule out larger isolators. The flat buffer format acts either as a shock cushion against a secondary moving component or as an elastic contact element seated directly against a surface, providing low-cost yet dependable protection. The soft 45 Shore A hardness grade delivers superior isolation efficiency at lower load levels and lower excitation frequencies, conditions typical of agricultural machinery, light industrial equipment, elevators, and commercial vehicle cab fittings. At this grade, the rubber yields more readily under dynamic loading, which translates directly into improved operator comfort and reduced transmission of vibration energy to surrounding structures, extending machinery service life in the process. This buffer is part of a broader Male Flat Buffer range available in alternative dimensions and hardness grades.

A. This buffer has a maximum load rating of 21.5 kg and a deflection of 7.5 mm, making it the highest-compliance option in the 20 x 30 mm Male Flat Buffer size — well suited to lighter loads where maximum vibration attenuation is the priority.
A. The buffer measures 20 mm diameter by 30 mm height (D x H) and features an M6 x 18 mm threaded stud (d x L).
A. A 45 Shore A (soft) rubber grade yields more readily under load, producing greater deflection and superior vibration isolation efficiency — particularly at lower excitation frequencies and lighter load levels. Harder grades (60 or 70 Shore A) carry higher loads with less movement but are less effective at isolating fine or low-amplitude vibration.
A. The source identifies applications including agricultural machinery, light industrial equipment, elevators, commercial vehicles, and construction equipment. At 45 Shore A, it is particularly suited to sensitive or lighter installations where vibration isolation and operator comfort are the primary requirements.
A. The buffer absorbs and dissipates impact and vibration energy through its rubber element, either cushioning a secondary moving component or acting as an elastic element in direct contact with a surface. This reduces transmitted force, protects surrounding structures, improves operator comfort, and helps extend machinery service life.
A. Yes. The 20 x 30 mm M6 format is also available in 60 Shore A (SKU 2030MFB18-60) and 70 Shore A (SKU 2030MFB18-70). Custom options including stainless steel metalwork and oil-resistant or high-temperature rubber compounds, plus additional sizes, are available on request.
