Super W Pads’ higher deflection waffle design with its suction cup action eliminates the need for bolting down. Super W Pads out perform cork and rubber “sandwich” pads by giving longer life and greater resiliency with consistent and reliable service.
Super W Pads are Molded in 2 elastomers:
Standard Natural Rubber
for maximum resilience and vibration isolation;
Neoprene
for longer life and moderate oil resistance (in ¾" pad only).
Standard 18" x 18" sheets consist of 81 two-inch squares each supporting 120 pounds. The squares are separated by a thin web that is easily cut to provide evenly dimensioned pads such as 2" x 2", 2" x 4", 4" x 4", 6" x 8", etc.
The Super W Pad is one of the thickest most versatile and efficient pads available.
Super W Pads should be used in 2" x 2" squares. Select the minimum number of squares required and design pads to the most convenient shape. The use of additional squares results in more conservative loading.
Example- Load is 700 lbs., capacity is 120 lbs/square. 700/120 = 5.83 squares. Use 6 squares configured as 2 squares by 3 squares (4" x 6") or 1 square by 6 squares (2" x 12")
Mini Super W Natural Rubber Pad 3/8" Thick
Mini Super W Pads have the same design as Super W Pads but are thinner (3/8"). They can be used as noise breaks where the added height of the 3/4" thick Super W is prohibitive. Mini Super W Pads are only made in 45 durometer natural rubber.

Super W Pads
Noise and vibration control pads should be relied upon only as a noise break and minor vibration control to be placed between equipment and a stiff support surface. Significant vibrations require “tall” rubber or spring mounts that yield higher deflections.
Pads may be stacked with 16 gauge shims between layers for increased deflection (For example, 3 layers offer 3 times the deflection).
