KEY FEATURES/BENEFITS

  • Natural frequency ranges from 6 to 40 Hz, depending on load, thickness and type of material
  • Damping rate is 4% – 9% of critical
  • Impervious to most chemicals, alkaline solutions and oils
  • Supplied in rolls for easy installation


Description

FAB-EPM is manufactured in a wide range of densities which allows for optimal loading to achieve increased isolator performance. 

FAB-EPM HP material can be supplied and used in full rolls, strips or even blocks. When used in full rolls, the material becomes the base formwork for the concrete foundation, creating a simple construction method.

FAQS

Should I use blocks, strips or full sheets of FAB-EPM HP® isolation material under the foundation? For maximum vibration isolation, the FAB-EPM HP should be stressed near the maximum static load. In many cases, full sheets can be used to get near the maximum static load, but in some cases, this cannot be achieved, therefore strips or blocks are needed to reduce surface area and optimize the stress. Full sheets are much easier to install because it does not require strategically placing the material in an array and covering it with marine grade plywood or steel plates.

 

Can FAB-EPM HP be layered to achieve a thicker material? Yes, FAB-EPM HP can be layered up to 2″ to provide a lower natural frequency.

 

What adhesive do you recommend to bond layers of FAB-EPM HP material? Fabreeka offers an adhesive (Apollo 2240-05) for bonding FAB-EPM HP layers. FAB-EPM HP layers can be bonded before shipping, if desired.

 

Can FAB-EPM HP be cut into shapes or OEM parts? FAB-EPM HP can be die cut or water jet to meet most requirements. Fabreeka can
