Rubber Cushion Mounting Bracket
SAF-Holland

This mounting assembly feature integrates a resilient rubber cushion within a compact bracket to isolate vibration and reduce peak stresses transmitted between structural members. The specialized elastomer geometry absorbs dynamic loads, which minimizes noise, wear, and fatigue in high-vibration environments common to heavy-duty vehicle frames, hitch subsystems, and engine mounting points. By dampening micro-movements, it helps preserve alignment of connected components and extends service life for supporting hardware and connected subsystems. The cushion’s dimensions—4.31 inches in length, 1.50 inches inner diameter, and 2.62 inches outer diameter—are designed to fit standardized spacings and hole patterns while maintaining effective deflection under operational loads. Classified as a component within the mounting hardware family, this part contributes to predictable performance and easier maintenance planning, particularly when replacement timing is driven by vibration-induced wear rather than cosmetic deterioration. VMRS coding 059-001-004 enables consistent maintenance planning and parts classification across fleets, while cross-references ATR PL1032 and TDA GAFF11724 provide alternative sourcing options for compatibility checks and stocking. In practical terms, it supports reliable coupling of auxiliary brackets and platforms, reducing galvanic or metal-to-metal contact and enabling smoother operation of attached equipment in day-to-day service and long-haul applications. Category context: 42801 (Component) situates it within the mounting systems ecosystem for orderly specification and sourcing.
