Sylomer Acoustic Cradle Mounts

Description

Sylomer® Acoustic Cradle Mounts

Sylomer® acoustic cradle mounts have been specifically designed for the isolation of timber batten flooring.

Particularly useful for high performance acoustic floating floors.

These mounts are manufactured in two special mixes and thicknesses of Sylomer® to better adapt to the loadings of each application.

The rugged metal parts can withstand tensile stresses and are supplied with an anti-corrosive treatment that can withstand the toughest environments.

They can also accommodate slight un-eveness of the subfloor as battens can be screwed onto the rigid side flanges with a small gap beneath. Designed for 50mm wide timber battens.

The excellent properties of the micro-cellular polyurethane provides for increased levels of sound isolation, especially at lower frequencies.

Sylomer® acoustic cradle mounts are far superior to more common rubber, cork, foam and felt based cradles which never detail any specific deflection due to live or dead loads, let alone natural frequencies. This maybe sufficient for a general domestic / residential application but for much more critical recording studio type applications where high mass, high isolation, low resonant timber floating floor systems are required then acoustic calculations need to be done and specific data on mount deflection and resonant frequency, due to live or dead loadings, is critical.

Natural frequency and deflection graphs are available on request. Generally, in certain combinations, natural frequencies as low as 10Hz can be achieved with deflections between 1-3mm.

There are five options types:
