Reduces the vibration by absorbing energy from the engine throughout the chassis especially at idle. Aids in maintaining proper alignment while keeping your front end operating properly.
Marmon Ride Control (formerly DEA Products) has been a trusted manufacturer of engine and transmission mounts for over 30 years. Marmon Ride Control uses the highest quality of raw materials available, and thoroughly tests their products with state-of-the-art lab equipment to ensure that you’ll be installing a mount that will meet or exceed your original mount’s specifications.
Testing Includes:
Visual Inspection
Visual / Finish
Paint / Rubber Appearance
Weld Integrity
Dimensional Verification
Dimensions tested / approved using CMM (machine which takes readings in six degrees of freedom and displays these readings in mathematical form)
Elastomer / Durometer Tested
Rubber Hardness Check
Every shipment inspected thoroughly
Supplier verification on site
Rubber Tensile Strength tested
Strip sample and test of rubber processing
Supplier must submit test report and sample from every batch
On-site audits to verify process capabilities
Thermogravimetric Analysis
TGA / Rubber Compression Tests (changes in physical and chemical properties of mount materials are measured as a function of increasing temperature (with constant heating rate), or as a function of time (with constant temperature and/or constant mass loss))
Rheometer / Vulkameter tested (measure the way rubbers respond to applied forces)
Supplier must submit test report and sample from every batch
On-site audits to verify process capabilities
Engine mounts are essentially shock absorbers that prevent your engine from bumping into the transmission and other components that keep your vehicle running. They have a metal frame that provides sturdy support and protection. They also have a rubber component that dampens vibrations and prevents metal-to-metal contact between your engine and the vehicle body. While engine mounts don’t require maintenance work or regular servicing, you still have to look out for signs of wear or damage. Signs of wear start to show within 5 to 7 years. Meanwhile, check for engine mount damages if you encounter road traffic accidents.
