Spring Floor Mounts

Spring floor mounts are vibration-control components used to support mounted equipment while helping manage transmitted vibration and noise. Common commercial uses include facility maintenance and equipment installation projects involving pumps, centrifugal fans, air handling units, air compressors, rotating machinery, and other equipment mounted on concrete or wood floors.

Use Cases

Support equipment while managing vibration

Use spring floor mounts for equipment vibration-control installations where transmitted vibration and noise are concerns. Specific represented applications include pumps, centrifugal fans, air handling units, air compressors, and rotating machinery.

How to Choose

Match the mount to installation needs

Check whether the installation needs floor bolting, leveling adjustment, a compact footprint, a stated load range, or all-directional snubbing. Also confirm the available mounting space and whether the floor is concrete or wood when applicable.

Applications

Choose the needed motion-control approach

Spring mounts provide spring movement and vibration control. Seismic spring isolators add all-directional or multidirectional snubbing, while rubber-in-shear mounts are intended for rotating machinery with no lateral motion.

Additional Info

Review mount construction details

Construction varies by product and can include cast iron or steel housings, steel or galvanized steel springs, molded neoprene elements or cups, acoustic base pads, elastomeric snubbers, and non-skid bases.

Planning Guide

Plan the right fit before choosing

Start with the mounting method

Decide whether the equipment needs a fixed floor connection

Several spring floor mounts have slotted mounting holes or a base plate for bolting to the floor. Some models also include a leveling device or leveling bolt assembly for adjustment during setup. A green rubber-in-shear mount has a ribbed non-skid base and does not require anchor bolts for machinery with no lateral motion.

  • Use slotted mounting holes for compatible concrete or wood floor installations.
  • Select a base plate when a bolted floor installation is required.
  • Consider leveling hardware when adjustment during setup is needed.
  • For no-lateral-motion machinery, consider a non-skid rubber-in-shear design that does not require anchor bolts.
Compare isolation and restraint

Choose spring deflection or directional snubbing based on the application

Some housed spring floor mounts provide 1 inch of spring deflection, while selected vibration isolators list 0.75 inch minimum deflection that increases as loading becomes heavier. Seismic spring isolators combine a spring with molded neoprene snubbing to help control movement in multiple directions.

  • Choose a 1 inch deflection mount where that specified deflection is needed.
  • Review 0.75 inch minimum-deflection options alongside their stated load range.
  • Select seismic isolators when all-directional or multidirectional snubbing is part of the mount design.
  • Look for elastomeric snubbers where preventing metal-to-metal contact is important.
Confirm fit and equipment support

Check dimensions, footprint, and stated load information

Plan around the available mounting area and the equipment support requirements. Represented options range from a compact 2 x 2 x 2-1/8 inch cylindrical mount to spring mounts with 2-3/8 x 2-3/8 inch base footprints. Stated load ranges on selected isolators include 130 to 200 lb and 230 to 310 lb.

  • Measure the installation area before selecting a mount.
  • Compare overall dimensions as well as base footprint.
  • Use stated load ranges only for the products that provide them.
  • Consider compact models for space-conscious equipment installations.
