MS Series

Compact design in a captive arrangement

Avacone mountings are designed with a unique characteristic – they offer flexibility in the axial direction but limited movement radially. This feature makes these mountings particularly suitable for mounting mobile equipment, where movement in the horizontal plane needs to be both accommodated and restrained.

Due to their compact design, Avacone mountings can usually be installed into existing chassis members, providing convenience and potential cost savings. All Avacone mountings are easily identifiable by the letters ‘ms’ at the start of the part number.

To ensure optimal operation and safety, Avacone mountings should always be used with top and bottom rebound washers fitted above and below the mounting. This configuration creates a fully captive arrangement and helps prevent excessive movement that can result from shock and inertia loads.

The MS236 and MS238 series can be supplied fitted in a pedestal base, adding another layer of versatility to the Avacone range. There are several sizes available to accommodate different needs. For assistance in selecting the most suitable mounting for a specific application, customers can seek advice from the technical department.

Typical applications of Avacone mountings include gearboxes and transmission equipment, liquid storage tanks, mobile generating sets, mobile compressors, marine engines, radiators, and vehicle cab mountings. This range of applications demonstrates the versatility and usefulness of Avacone mountings in various scenarios.
