Heavy Load Mount – Type G.C

Heavy Load Mount Type G.C. is a rubber-metal anti-vibration mount from AMC Mecanocaucho rated for exceptionally heavy plant, with a load capacity of 30,000 kg per mount and a design deflection of 8 mm. It is the highest-capacity mount in the AMC heavy load range and is used to isolate very large industrial machinery from the building structure.

Specifications

• Manufacturer: AMC Mecanocaucho
• Type: Type G.C.
• Product code: 141041
• Load capacity: 30,000 kg
• Design deflection: 8 mm
• Construction: Rubber-metal composite

Applications

Vibration isolation of the heaviest industrial plant including large presses, turbines, generators, and process machinery where per-mount loads approach 30,000 kg. The Type G.C. sits at the top of the AMC Mecanocaucho heavy load mount range and is selected when the Type B (10,000 kg rated) is insufficient for the static load requirements of the installation. Suitable for power generation, heavy manufacturing, and large-scale plant rooms.

Frequently asked questions

What is the purpose of the 8 mm deflection specification?
The deflection under design load determines the natural frequency of the isolation system. A defined deflection of 8 mm at 30,000 kg allows engineers to calculate the isolation efficiency at the operating frequency of the mounted machinery.

How does the Type G.C. differ from the Type B in the same range?
The Type G.C. (code 141041) is rated at 30,000 kg, compared to the Type B (code 141004) at 10,000 kg. Both use rubber-metal composite construction and are drawn from the same AMC Mecanocaucho heavy load mount family.
