Tech Products 51172 Vibration Isolator 55 Lb Plate Plate

Product Description

The TECH PRODUCTS 51172 is a plate-to-plate vibration isolator rated for loads up to 55 pounds. It uses a 1/4-20 threaded mount on both the top and bottom plates, allowing it to sandwich between a piece of equipment and a mounting surface to absorb and dampen vibration. The unit measures 1 inch in diameter and 3/4 inch in height, making it compact enough for tight equipment bases. It weighs approximately 1 pound. HVAC technicians, mechanical contractors, and equipment installers use this isolator to reduce vibration transmission from motors, compressors, fans, and similar rotating equipment to the supporting structure.

This vibration isolator is suited for light-duty equipment mounting applications where vibration control is needed at the base of the unit. Typical uses include mounting small HVAC components, fan assemblies, pumps, and other motorized equipment in both residential and light commercial installations. The plate-to-plate design allows the isolator to be fastened securely from both sides using standard 1/4-20 fasteners, making it a straightforward drop-in solution during equipment installation or service.

Key Features

• 55-pound load capacity handles light-duty equipment mounting needs
• Plate-to-plate mount type with 1/4-20 threaded connections on both faces
• Compact profile at 1 inch diameter and 3/4 inch height fits tight spaces
• Reduces vibration transmission from rotating equipment to mounting surfaces
• Single-piece isolator simplifies installation and reduces hardware count

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install vibration isolator for light-duty equipment bases requiring a 1/4-20 plate-to-plate mount with a 55-pound load rating.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or mechanical contractors during equipment mounting or base service. Power down and lock out all equipment before removing or replacing isolators under load. Use standard hand tools and appropriate 1/4-20 fasteners to secure the isolator between the equipment base plate and the mounting surface. Do not exceed the 55-pound rated load capacity on a single isolator.
