Anti vibration pads , which are designed to isolate and absorb shocks and vibration, come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, rubber grades and hardnesses. They are widely used in households, placed under chairs and tables to protect hardwood floors from damage, and can also be found beneath laundry machines to reduce noise and prevent the units from walking around during spin cycles. However, they can be used on a much larger scale to address some infrastructural concerns for industrial machinery.

For example, a BendPak air compressor can be set on one of these thick rubber pads to not only reduce vibration but also help save the machine from needless wear and tear caused by the constant shaking of the unit. The high quality elastomer composition of these pads helps them resist aging, compression set and oil to ensure a long-lasting use.

These rubber and neoprene anti vibration pads are also suitable for much heavier units than a washer or dryer, including pumps, engines, air conditioning systems, and compressors. They can be used as a stabilizing solution for heavy equipment on uneven surfaces to minimize movement and vibration. Neoprene and nitrile versions offer great resistance to chemicals, lubricants, and oils.

The EZ-FLO anti vibration pads are an easy to install accessory that’s ideal for use underneath laundry machines and dryers to dampen vibration, reduce noise, and prevent the units from walking across the floor during their spin cycles. These pads can be used on any flooring surface and are easily cut to the size needed for a variety of washing machines and dryers. These pads can be purchased in a pack of four and are priced fairly.
