Laminated Elastomeric Bearing with Embedded Steel Plate

Laminated elastomeric bearing features reinforced steel plates that are sandwiched between layers of rubber through vulcanization and molding manufacturing process to form a homogeneous unit. Not only do these embedded steel plates limit excessive expansions, but also increase transversal, longitudinal and compressive strength as well as rotation capability comparing with plain elastomeric bearings.

Features:

Profile of two laminated elastomeric bearings are placed on the floor

Laminated elastomeric bearing

Capable to withstand severe vertical loads and external forces.

High accommodation of movements caused by expansion, contraction, concrete creep effects and shrinkage, etc.

Allow for rotations of the bearing in any horizontal axis caused by deflections or misalignments.

Absorb vibrations and isolate sounds.

Great traction resistance.

Corrosion free in that the steel plates are embedded in the rubber without contact of air.

Easy to install.

Applications:

Bridges with small displacements and short span.

Load bearings of building structures.

Flyovers.
