Tech Products 50917 Vibration Isolator 7 Lb 8-32 Stud

Product Description

The TECH PRODUCTS 50917 is a stud-to-stud vibration isolator designed to dampen mechanical vibration and reduce noise transmission in HVAC, refrigeration, and light mechanical equipment installations. Rated for a maximum load capacity of 7 pounds, it uses an 8-32 thread on both ends and measures 0.375 inches in diameter and 0.5 inches in height. Its compact form factor makes it suitable for applications where space is limited and vibration isolation is required between a mounted component and a structural surface. Licensed HVAC technicians and mechanical contractors install this type of isolator as part of standard equipment mounting procedures.

This isolator is used in residential and light commercial HVAC systems, refrigeration equipment, and small motor assemblies where vibration must be controlled to protect adjacent components and reduce audible noise. It installs between a threaded stud on the equipment and a corresponding mounting point on a panel, bracket, or frame. The stud-to-stud configuration allows direct inline installation without additional hardware in most standard 8-32 threaded mounting arrangements.

Key Features

• Stud-to-stud isolator design for direct inline threaded mounting
• 8-32 thread size on both ends for compatibility with standard machine screw mounting patterns
• 7 pound maximum load capacity suitable for small components and light equipment
• Compact profile at 0.375 inches diameter and 0.5 inches height for tight-space installations
• Reduces vibration transmission and associated noise in mounted equipment assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard stud-to-stud vibration isolator for use with 8-32 threaded mounting points in HVAC, refrigeration, and light mechanical equipment applications where load does not exceed 7 pounds per isolator.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians or mechanical contractors as part of equipment mounting or component replacement. Power down and de-energize the equipment before servicing any mounted components. Thread both studs into their respective mounting points by hand first, then snug with appropriate hand tools - do not overtighten, as overtorquing can compromise the isolator material and reduce vibration damping effectiveness. Verify that the total load per isolator does not exceed the 7 pound rated capacity before completing installation.
