Collection: Weighbridge rubbers

What are weighbridge rubbers

Weighbridge rubbers are rubber components used in and around weighbridge installations to support, protect or isolate structural elements. They are designed to absorb loads, reduce vibration and compensate for movement within the weighing system.

The rubber elements help protect the weighbridge structure and associated components from mechanical stress caused by traffic and environmental influences.

What are weighbridge rubbers used for

Weighbridge rubbers are commonly used in applications where load distribution, impact absorption or isolation is required within weighbridge systems. Typical uses include buffer elements, load supports and protective rubber parts around the weighing platform.

They contribute to stable operation of the weighbridge by limiting stress on metal components and surrounding structures.

Are weighbridge rubbers suitable for heavy loads

Yes, weighbridge rubbers are designed to operate under heavy loads associated with vehicle traffic. The rubber material helps distribute forces and reduces peak stresses during loading and unloading.

This supports consistent performance and helps extend the service life of weighbridge installations.

What affects the performance of weighbridge rubbers

The performance of weighbridge rubbers depends on factors such as rubber compound, shape and installation conditions. These factors influence load-bearing behaviour, durability and resistance to repeated stress.

Material selection should therefore be based on the load requirements and operating conditions of the weighbridge system.
