8L-8564: MOUNTING

Description: Isolation mounts are used to attach and position systems, accommodate displacement, and isolate components from the surrounding structure (vibration, shock, noise). Mushroom Mounts feature a flap of rubber that "mushrooms" or flares out upon installation into the support plate to form its own rebound pad. Attributes: Cat® Mounting Systems are designed to reduce stress and strain on mounted components to increase their durability and performance life, and to contribute to operator comfort. The entire system (mount design, material selection, placement, hardware, etc.) is optimized and validated to meet specific application requirements. Mushroom Mounts offer a simple one-piece design. Proper installation procedures should be followed to ensure the mount is fully seated and that the mushrooming end flares out correctly. Applications:Mushroom Mounts are used in a wide variety of Cat system installations, especially in light-to-medium load applications, like hydraulic lines, tanks, fans and cooler groups.
