FLEXIBLE ENGINE MOUNTS

Type MITSTEUN
For marine diesel engines with 18 up to 26 kW (25-35 hp)
This hydro-damper is a combination of a conventional rubber-metal
damper and a hydraulic shock absorber. Its reduction of vibration and
noise is truly amazing. The maximum static load per support is 132 lbs
(60 kg) and the maximum thrust 110 lbs (50 kg).

MITSTEUN

Type HY

For heavy-weight engines with 4 or more cylinders
This type is extremely suitable for application with marine diesel
engines in the power range between 30 and 125 kW
(40-170 hp), by virtue of a low stiffness combined with high stiffness in
the longitudinal direction.

HY100 HY150 HY230

Type LMX
For marine diesel engines with 70 up to 350 kW (95-480 hp)
This type has been designed with particular regard to the power to
weight ratio of modern diesel engines. The weight of an engine,
in comparison to its thrust, has become lower and lower. Type LMX
guarantees optimum damping of vibrations, even at idling revs. It has
a very high horizontal and aft stiffness which allows the acceptance
of considerable thrust. The cushioning of vibrations in horizontal
direction athwart-ships is of equal excellence.
