Overview
Jarret Series

LR Series

BC5 Series

BC1GN Series

BC1ZN Series

Spring

The design of Jarret Industrial Shock Absorber utilizes the unique compression and shear characteristics of
specially formulated silicone elastomers.

These characteristics allow the energy absorption and return spring functions to be combined into a single
unit without the need for an additional gas or mechanical spring stroke return mechanism.

Applications: Advantages:
Shock protection for all types of industries including: - Simple design - High reliability
Defense, Automobile, Railroad, Materials Handling, - High damping coefficient
Marine, Pulp/Paper, Metal Producing and Processing. - Low sensitivity to temperature variances

Visco-elastic technology makes use of the fundamental properties of specially formulated Jarret visco-elastic fluids.

Compressibility:
Preloaded spring function
- F = F0 + KX

Viscosity:
Shock absorber function
- F = F0 + KX + CV α with α
between 0,1 and 0,4

The two functions can be used separately or in combination, in the same product:

Preloaded Spring: Preloaded Spring Shock Absorbers:

Spring Function Only Combine Spring and Shock Absorber Functions
• Hysteresis of between 5% and 10% • Dissipate between 30% and 100% of energy
• Reduced weight and space • Force/stroke characteristics remain relatively unchanged
requirement between -10°C and + 70°C
• Force/stroke characteristic is
Shock Absorber Without Spring Return:
independent of actuation speed
Shock Absorbing Function Only
• Dampening devices
• Blocking devices
