E-A-R Specialty Composites provides a wide range of materials
and component options for controlling complex noise, vibration,
motion and mechanical shock. Standard components include
grommets, fan mounts, bushings and equipment feet. This
extensive offering of standard parts will often provide an
“off-the-shelf” solution that meets design requirements.
In addition, E-A-R offers the industry’s broadest range of
engineered elastomer platforms specifically developed to
address mechanical energy control challenges that are
common in today’s complex OEM product designs.
Designers can choose from four standard materials platforms—
ISODAMP C-1000 Series elastomers, ISODAMP C-8002 Series
elastomers, VersaDamp 2000 Series TPEs and ISOLOSS HD
thermoset polyurethanes—to obtain precisely the right
combination of performance and physical properties.
The ISODAMP, ISOLOSS and VersaDamp material platforms are
highly damped elastomers, exhibiting extremely low rebound
characteristics. This ensures extremely low amplification at
resonance and rapid settling to equilibrium after impulsive
shock or vibration input.
In addition, the VersaDamp platform offers adjustable damping
and stiffness, enabling the design engineer to custom-tune a part’s
dynamic response. VersaDamp TPEs also offer an extended service
temperature range, making them ideal for portable electronics
and automotive applications.
E-A-R’s ISODAMP C-8002 Series thermoplastic molding material
combines excellent damping performance and mechanical
strength with compliance to environmental and other high
cleanliness specifications, for high performance solutions
in a wide variety of molded parts applications.
Additional features and typical applications for each of the
materials platforms are listed at left. More detailed information
on E-A-R’s full line of elastomers is contained in materials
summary sheets and technical data sheets available directly
from the company, on the Website at www.earsc.com or on
the electronics Website at www.earshockandvibe.com.

Poorly damped isolators can amplify incoming
vibration, causing damage and excess noise.
E-A-R isolators minimize this concern and better
accommodate variable-frequency, impulsive or
broadband vibration sources.
THE DIFFERENCE IS THE DAMPING
A poorly damped isolator (typically made from natural rubber
or silicone), that is soft enough for good vibration isolation,
may require more sway space for deflection during a shock
input than the product’s design can provide. So a stiffer isolator
may be needed to prevent crashing or bottoming out, but this
could have a negative effect on vibration performance. E-A-R’s
highly damped elastomers help mitigate this common conflict.
Traditional practice has dictated that the natural frequency of
an isolation mount be well below the operating frequency of
the vibration source. This tactic seeks to avoid a situation where
the source’s operational frequency is near the mount’s natural
frequency, causing excessive amplification of the transmitted
vibration. In practice, though, it is often difficult to avoid
excitation of the isolation system’s resonance, especially
in complex systems that cycle on and off, change speed
or produce broadband, multi-frequency vibration.
With E-A-R’s highly damped elastomers, vibration amplification
is minimized. Figure 1 illustrates how an elastomer’s loss factor
(m, a measure of hysteretic damping) influences vibration
amplification. E-A-R’s elastomers, with material loss factors
near 1.0, exhibit a maximum amplification of only 3 to 5 dB
(1.4X to 1.8X). Natural rubber or silicone isolators, with loss
factors as low as 0.05, can exhibit excessive amplification as
high as 25dB (18X). This reduced amplification minimizes
the traditional need for an isolation system with a low natural
frequency. As a result, a stiffer mount can be used to better
accommodate shock requirements while still providing the
vibration isolation performance necessary for most noise
control applications.
Shock Protection: Reducing Space, Time and Magnitude
For most OEM shock protection applications, E-A-R’s highly
damped elastomers offer two important advantages:
Figures 2 and 3 illustrate how the loss factor of an isolator
material can influence shock response (transmitted acceleration
and peak deflection). E-A-R’s highly damped elastomers, with
loss factors near 1.0, provide lower peak acceleration and
deflection resulting in a higher degree of shock protection
within a smaller package design. Poorly damped elastomers
often require twice as much sway space to provide the same
level of shock protection. This benefit is critical given the tight
space constraints that are common in today’s smaller portable
electronic devices and component-dense OEM products.
In addition, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, E-A-R elastomers provide
a quick return to equilibrium while the poorly damped system
continues to oscillate and flex. Post-shock, resonant oscillation
is a primary contributor to electromechanical system performance
loss and component fatigue failure in portable electronic devices.
E-A-R’s highly damped elastomers help to reduce these post-shock
oscillations, increase product performance and extend product life.

Acceleration (G)
Optimized Shock and Vibration Control
Vibration is typically characterized by continuous oscillatory motion
of relatively small amplitude, while shock commonly features a
relatively large, sudden change in acceleration due to an applied
dynamic force. Consequently, vibration and shock considerations
often place conflicting requirements on an isolation system.
• Lower peak acceleration (Gs) and displacement (sway) response
to shock input, compared to poorly damped elastomers.
• Dramatically reduced settling time after shock input.

E-A-R damped elastomers offer important advantages over
poorly damped materials, such as natural and synthetic rubber,
silicone and commodity TPEs. These advantages are especially
important when attempting to control noise, shock and vibration in today’s complex and component-dense OEM products.
E-A-R elastomers reduce
sway space requirements
by nearly half, allowing for
compact shock protection
systems.

Non-shaded area indicates peak damping performance temperature range.
Predicting E-A-R isolator performance is simple. Just follow the
performance graphs represents the dynamic stiffness for a C-1002
instructions below and refer to the grommet data tables and
grommet at 70F (21C). The Temperature/ Formulation Correction
performance graphs beginning on Page 4.
Chart above makes it easy to determine the dynamic stiffness of any
ISODAMP or VersaDamp grommet for any operating temperature.
DETERMINING DYNAMIC STIFFNESS
Select a candidate ISODAMP or VersaDamp grommet based on your
application parameters—load per isolator, axial (horizontal plate) or
radial (vertical plate) orientation, and plate dimensions. Follow these
steps to determine a grommet’s dynamic stiffness by using the data table
and performance graph for the grommet style you have chosen.
• From the data table—Locate the load factor for the chosen grommet
and orientation (axial or radial). Now, divide the grommet load
(lb/grommet) by the load factor. The result is the load ratio.
Simply multiply the correction factor from this chart by the stiffness
just calculated to get the dynamic stiffness value (lb/in) of the grommet
in the material of choice for your operating temperature range.
N AT U R A L F R E Q U E N C Y C A L C U L AT I O N
Calculations from the grommet data tables and grommet performance
graphs are intended to determine dynamic stiffness values for E-A-R
grommets. This stiffness data is basic to predicting overall system
response and system natural frequency.
• To the performance graph—Locate the load ratio value on the
curve (x-axis), and read the resulting stiffness ratio from the y-axis.
• Back to the data table—Multiply this stiffness ratio value by the
The natural frequency of a particular E-A-R grommet can now be
calculated using the following formula:
stiffness factor. And this is the per grommet stiffness (lb/in).

EXAMPLE CALCULATION: COMPUTER HARD DRIVE
K = Dynamic stiffness (lb/in)
W = Load per grommet (lb)
Problem Statement
• Our example is a 1.5 lb hard drive isolated with four G-411-2 (ISODAMP C-1105)
grommets at 100F. Lateral hard drive vibration produces axial grommet deflection (y direction, see Figure 2). We therefore will utilize the axial mount data for
the stiffness calculation. Four grommets will be used to support the hard drive.
Two grommets are shown in Figure 1 and two are located on the opposite side.

COMPUTER HARD DRIVE SHOCK PROTECTION
Problem Statement
K = Dynamic stiffness (lb/in)
W = Load per grommet (lb)
• Our example is a 1.5 lb hard drive isolated with four G-411-2 grommets at
100F. The shock input: Half Sine 100G @ 2ms. The shock input creates radial
loading of grommets (z direction in Figure 2, Page 11). Therefore, we will
utilize radial mount data for our stiffness calculation. Four grommets are
used to support the hard drive (see Figure 1, Page 11).

Stiffness and Natural Frequency Calculation
Shock Input: Half Sine
(100G, 2ms)
• Load per grommet: 1.5 lb ÷ 4 = 0.375 lb/grommet
• From the data table on Page 4: load factor = 0.9
• Divide load per grommet by load factor to get load ratio: 0.375 ÷ 0.9 = 0.417
• Use the performance graph to get the stiffness ratio: load ratio of 0.417
corresponds to stiffness ratio of 1.5
• From the data table: stiffness factor = 1153 lb/in
• Effective stiffness will be stiffness factor x stiffness ratio = 1.5 x 1153= 1730 lb/in
Peak Deflection Response (100G, 2ms half sine pulses)
1
• Determine the temperature correction factor for C-1105 material @ 100F.
Temperature correction factor= 0.63.
Displacement (in)
m = 1.0
• Actual grommet dynamic stiffness: 1730 lb/in x 0.63 = 1090 lb/in
m = 0.1
• Natural Frequency n = 1059 rad/sec (167 Hz)
0.1
Shock Protection Performance Calculation
• Effective time duration for half sine shock is 0.637 x actual duration:
0.637 x 0.002 sec = 0.00127 sec
• Take natural frequency x effective duration = 1059 rad/sec x 0.00127 sec =
1.35 and find response in Figure 1 using loss factor = 1.0 curve.

Natural Frequency ( n )

• Transmissibility is just slightly less than one. Calculated time response
(via computer algorithm) in Figure 2 confirms this. Often, this is quite
acceptable where the designer wants to ensure that the system does
not amplify shock.
• Peak deflection for this system is 0.022 inch as determined from graph
in Figure 3 using the C-1105 material. A curve is shown for poorly damped
material such as natural rubber (m=0.1). The peak displacement would
then be 0.039 inch which is 77 percent higher than the ISODAMP C-1105
material. This graph is valid for 100G, 2ms half sine pulses only.
• Additional theory on shock protection calculations can be found in most
shock and vibration handbooks.

TO
DETERMINE
ISOLATOR
STIFFNESS
AND
NATURAL
FREQUENCY
The dynamic stiffness values presented in the tables on Pages 13-14
CALCULATION WORKSHEET
are based on a mount temperature of 68F (20C). To determine
1. Choice of isolator
2. Weight/isolator
3. Orientation of the installed isolator
4. Dynamic stiffness of the isolator at 68F (20C)
5. Operating temperature of the application
6. Temperature correction factor
7. Multiply the dynamic stiffness value
(lb/in)
by the temperature correction factor
8. Calculate natural frequency using equation provided
below left.
whether a particular ISOLOSS HD or VL isolator has the required
dynamic stiffness for a particular application, simply use the
Stiffness-Temperature Correction Graph below and follow
these steps.
CALCULATING STIFFNESS WITH TEMPERATURE
1. Select an ISOLOSS HD or VL isolator for your application.
2. Consult the tables on Pages 13-14 to find the dynamic stiffness
value for the particular isolator you have chosen. Use the value
given for either axial (horizontal plate) or radial (vertical plate),
depending on how the grommet will be used. For a sandwich
mount, choose the value for compression or shear mounting.
3. Using the operating temperature of the application, find the
temperature correction factor for the material you are
considering from the graph below.
4. Multiply the dynamic stiffness value by the temperature
correction factor to obtain the dynamic stiffness at the
specified temperature of the application.
NATURAL FREQUENCY CALCULATION
EXAMPLE CALCULATION
1. Choice of isolator
G-411-H
2. Weight per isolator
= 3 lbs.
3. Orientation of the installed isolator
Axial mount
4. Dynamic stiffness of the isolator at 68F (20C)
= 1470
5. Operating temperature of the application
= 86F (30C)
6. Temperature correction factor
= 0.5
7. Multiply by the dynamic stiffness value
= 735 lb/in
by the temperature correction factor
8. Calculate natural frequency: Fn = 3.13 √ 735/3 = 49Hz
9. Refer to Pages 11 and 12 for additional isolator performance
calculations.
The natural frequency of a particular E-A-R grommet or sandwich
mount can now be calculated by using the dynamic stiffness
calculated above.

GROMMETS
To meet a wide range of performance and assembly needs, E-A-R offers both
one-piece and two-piece styles of grommets.
GROMMET INSERTION
Figure 1
One-piece grommets—ribbed and non-ribbed
Here are typical methods for installing one-piece E-A-R grommets in a frame
or panel.
• For use in automated assembly, the preferred method of grommet
installation is the straight-side or keyhole slot. See Figure 1. This method
accommodates robotic assembly and is the easiest for manual assembly
as well. Using this method, the grommet and the hardware recommended
to optimize performance can be installed in a single step, or the hardware
can be added later. See Figure 2.

TYPICAL ISODAMP GROMMET INSTALLATIONS
Figure 2
• For manual assembly without keyhole slots, E-A-R grommets can
be heated to make them more pliable. They can then more easily
be pushed into position in the frame or plate.
TYPICAL ISODAMP BUSHING AND RING INSTALLATIONS

Double bushing
Two-piece grommets—bushings and rings
For non-standard-thickness panels or frames, use of two-piece grommets
(bushings and rings, or two bushings, as shown in Figure 3) can provide
a major installation advantage. Two-piece grommets eliminate the need
for preheating. The two pieces are installed from opposite sides to
accommodate many panel thicknesses.

Hardware
Common hardware, typically used with E-A-R grommets to mechanically limit
preload, is shown in Figure 4. The hardware may include a shoulder bolt with
washer, plastic or metal spacer, sleeve, or locking nuts with bolt and washers.
Sleeve
Optimum performance of vibration and shock is generally achieved with
5 to 10 percent preloading of E-A-R grommets, especially for ribbed styles.
The ideal hardware height to obtain maximum recommended preload can
be calculated from the formula Hardware Height = 0.91 (H) + 0.09(G),
where H is the overall grommet height and G is the thickness of the mounting plate. See Figure 5.

Isolation Disk
FAN MOUNTS
Here are typical methods for installing ISODAMP fan mounts.
• Pull one opening of the “isolation disk” into the hole in the sheet metal. Pull
the fan mount into sheet metal hole in a rotational motion. See Figure 6.
Repeat until all the fan mounts are in all the sheet metal holes.
Figure 7
• Align all the fan holes to the fan mounts. Push the fan into the fan mounts
while pulling the tip of each individual fan mount through the holes in the
fan. See Figure 7.

Alternate fan mount installations
Figures 8 and 9 illustrate two alternate installation methods.
• Basic Keyhole: Slide fan mounts into the keyholes on the sheet metal. Align
all the fan holes to the fan mounts. Push the fan into the mounts, pulling
each mount through the corresponding hole in the fan. See Figure 8.
• Rotational Keyhole: First pull all the fan mounts through the holes on the
fan. Position the fan and mount assembly over the sheet metal. Push all the
fan mount bases into the large portion of the keyhole. Rotate the assembly
until it locks in place. See Figure 9.
Custom design options
E-A-R fan mounts can be designed with a throw-away tip that breaks away
with a firm tug after the fan has been installed. See Figure 10. The force
ALTERNATE INSTALLATION
Figure 8: Basic Keyhole
required to pull the mount through the fan holes should be less than 1.5 lbf.
Keyhole Detail
Break-off force for the tip is about 3 lbf. Figure 11 shows another option—a
D
“double Xmas tree design”— which can accommodate two different flange
thicknesses.
For even greater flexibility in manufacturing assembly, fan mounts can be
designed for two-way pull-through installation. See Figure 12. This allows the
choice of pulling the mount through either the fan holes or the sheet metal
holes first.

ISOLOSS SANDWICH MOUNTS
As shown in Figure 13, ISOLOSS sandwich mounts can be used to support

loads in either compression or shear, or, as in most cases, some combination
of the two. Here are some installation tips to consider when installing a mount.
Sheet Metal
Loading conditions vs. stiffness
ISOLOSS HD and VL elastomers are stiffer under compressive load than
CUSTOM FAN MOUNT DESIGN OPTIONS
Figure 10: Break-off Tip
under shear load. Consequently, when the elastomers are used in shear,
Break-off point
they cannot be load-rated as highly as when used in compression.
The dynamic shear stiffness generally is between 20 and 30 percent of the
compressive stiffness. Thus, a mount’s natural frequency under compres-
Figure 11: Double X-mas Tree
sion loading is twice what it is under shear loading. Therefore, a mount
can be used in static compression up to its material strength limits
while providing very good isolation of lateral, or shear, vibration.
Figure 12: 2-Way Pull Through
Deflection in overload conditions
ISOLOSS sandwich mounts are self-snubbing under compressive overload. As
a mount is loaded to its design limit, the effective stiffness begins to increase,
thus offsetting excessive deflection under overload conditions. By contrast,
overload in the shear direction will increase shear stiffness only slightly. Consequently, shear overload is not self-snubbing. The same is true for tensile overload.
This behavior makes a strong case for engineering sandwich mounts to
SANDWICH MOUNT

be used primarily in compression, especially in cases where occasional
overload or excessive temperatures may occur. As a rule, sandwich
W
mounts should never be used primarily in tension. If they must be used
in tension or shear, however, a fail-safe design, e.g., use of a retention
strap, is especially critical.

Select the frequency of interest on the righthand vertical axis.
Follow the selected frequency line horizontally
to the left until the selected diagonal temperature isotherm is intersected.
Draw a vertical line up and down through the
frequency/isotherm intersection, intersecting
the dynamic Young’s modulus and material
loss factor curves.
Draw horizontal lines from these points to
intersect the left-hand vertical axis.
The dynamic Young’s modulus value is read
using the Dynamic Modulus scale and the
loss factor from the Loss Factor scale.

PUT E-A-R ON YOUR DESIGN TEAM
Incorporating preventive measures early in a product’s development
process can help sidestep unwanted noise and vibration, as well as disruptive and destructive shock energy that can affect marketability. It
also can prevent the need to re-engineer, redesign or retool. Retrofitting
is rarely as cost-effective as designed-in controls, and may be much
more costly to implement in the long run.
Assistance from an E-A-R applications engineer may entail a quick
phone call, complete in-house lab diagnosis or even a visit to the customer’s site. Our NOVICON lab can effectively diagnose problems and
validate our proposed solutions, utilizing state-of-the-art diagnostic and
analytical tools. Vibration shakers, drop shock tables, high-speed video
and a hemi-anechoic chamber are just a few of the tools commonly used.
E-A-R engineers and technicians routinely consult with product designers about materials selection, design configurations, potential problems
and other critical noise, vibration and shock issues while the design is still
on the drawing board. We don’t supply just materials. We offer our technical expertise, applications experience and testing capabilities as well.
E-A-R also utilizes the latest 3D solid modeling CAD systems—ProE,
CATIA, SolidWorks and SDRC-Ideas—to examine a customer’s product
