Helical spring mounts
have been around for many years, but our company pioneered the use of springs
designed with diameters equal to or approaching their operating height.
The SLF configuration is used without housings for maximum vibration attenuation.
While our telescoping Type C casting does introduce some damping, all of
the other housings encase the spring without interfering with its action.
The Type KIP and KIJ can be cast into foundations poured in place. The springs
are adjusted to elevate the foundations. Types SLR or SLRJ are restrained
spring mountings with operating heights equal to installed height and interlocks
for safety in wind loads. Vertical limit stops prevent spring extension
when weight is removed. Mountings carrying 15,000 pounds or more are usually
designed with hydraulic adjustment to save time and effort. Another Mason
Industries contribution to the art.
