Tech Products 50179 Vibration Isolator 5 Lb 6-32 Stud

Product Description

The TECH PRODUCTS 50179 is a stud-to-stud vibration isolator designed to dampen mechanical vibration and reduce noise transmission in HVAC, refrigeration, and light mechanical equipment applications. Rated for a 5 lb load capacity, it features a 6-32 threaded stud configuration on both ends for straightforward inline mounting. The isolator measures 7/16 inches in diameter and 13/32 inches in height, making it a compact solution for tight equipment mounting locations. It weighs 0.5 pounds. HVAC technicians and mechanical installers use this type of isolator to reduce vibration transfer from compressors, fans, and small motor assemblies to supporting structures or enclosures.

This isolator is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC installations where vibration control is needed at the equipment level. Typical applications include mounting small fan motors, control components, or compressor assemblies where structure-borne noise and vibration must be minimized. The stud-in, stud-out configuration allows for clean inline installation without the need for additional hardware. Its compact dimensions make it well-suited for use in tight equipment compartments or control panel enclosures.

Key Features

• 5 lb load capacity rated for light mechanical and HVAC component mounting
• 6-32 stud/stud threaded configuration on both ends for inline installation
• Compact form factor at 7/16 inches diameter and 13/32 inches height
• Reduces vibration transfer and structure-borne noise from small motors and fans
• Lightweight at 0.5 pounds for use in space-constrained equipment enclosures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style vibration isolator for use in residential and light commercial HVAC, refrigeration, and mechanical equipment requiring 6-32 stud-mount vibration isolation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified mechanical installer. Always de-energize the equipment and follow applicable lockout/tagout procedures before servicing mounting hardware. Use the appropriate hand tools for 6-32 fastener engagement and avoid overtightening, which can compress the isolator beyond its effective damping range. Verify the installed load does not exceed the 5 lb capacity rating.
