<DIV>Jim,</DIV> <DIV> What you're looking for is commonly known as an "isolation" mount. Take a look here:</DIV> <DIV><A href="http://www.rubber-group.com/isolationmounts.html">http://www.rubber-group.com/isolationmounts.html</A></DIV> <DIV>I don't know what their minimum quantity requirement is but it looks like they have just about any size. Let me know if you have any success with them.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>For pipe mounting I've been using a different type of mount lately. It's called a "well nut" or "rivet nut":</DIV><FONT size=2> <DIV></FONT><A href="http://www.mcmaster.com/nav/enter.asp?pagenum=3214"><U><FONT color=#0000ff size=2>http://www.mcmaster.com/nav/enter.asp?pagenum=3214</U></FONT></A></DIV> <DIV>It's a piece of threaded metal encapsulated in rubber. You drill a hole in the hard-point, insert the well nut, attach your part to the well nut using a screw and tighten the screw. The well nut swells up on the other side of the
attachment point and retains the part that you're fastening. It's self locking and you can control the amount of isolation by how much you tighten the screw. I've had iso-mounts fail (the two halves will separate) but the well nuts hold up fine. I would suggest replacing them during your annual maintenance though - I consider them a wear item like fuel tubing. You can add nylon spacers of different thickness' between the well nut and the pipe mount to align the pipe too.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>John Pavlick <BR><BR><B><I>"Woodward, Jim (US SSA)" <jim.woodward@baesystems.com></I></B> wrote:</DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Hi Guys,<BR><BR>I would like to purchase a rubber isolation mount like what is used on<BR>the Dave Brown hush-clamp pipe mounts.<BR><BR>http://www.vibrationmounts.com/Store.asp?Page=Products1.htm here is a<BR>link to what they look like.
