FAQs

What material are the buffers made from?

The buffers are manufactured from durable synthetic rubber, designed for strength and longevity.

What is the standoff height of these buffers?

The standoff height is 38mm, which creates a protective gap between the buffer and the mounting surface.

How are these buffers mounted?

They are designed to be bolted onto any suitable surface using the integrated 7mm mounting hole. Mounting hardware is not included.

What are the overall dimensions of one buffer?

Each buffer has a total length of 102mm and a total width of 25mm.

Can these buffers be used both inside and outside?

Yes, they are suitable for both internal and external applications.

What types of vehicles or structures are these best suited for?

They are ideal for trucks, trailers, horse boxes, shutter doors, motor homes, loading bays, and similar applications requiring impact cushioning.

Does this listing include mounting hardware?

No, this listing is for 4 x rubber top hat buffers only. Mounting hardware such as bolts or screws is not included.

Troubleshooting

Buffer is loose after installation

Ensure the correct size and type of mounting hardware were used for the surface. Re-tighten bolts or screws, or consider using anchors if mounting into a weaker material.

Buffer shows signs of cracking or tearing

Inspect the mounting location for excessive or misaligned forces. Replace the buffer if it appears significantly degraded. Synthetic rubber can degrade over time with prolonged exposure to harsh UV or chemicals.

Inadequate impact absorption

Verify that the buffer is positioned correctly to absorb the intended impact. Ensure the surface it is mounted to is rigid and stable. Consider adding more buffers if the impact force is very high.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effectively prevents damage from impacts and knocks.
  • Made from robust, durable synthetic rubber.
  • Versatile for numerous applications on vehicles and structures.
  • Easy to install with basic tools.
  • Provides significant cushioning with its standoff design.

Cons

  • Mounting hardware (bolts/screws) is not included.
  • May require drilling holes for installation.
  • The black color might not suit all aesthetic requirements.
  • Primarily a protective component, not a load-bearing one.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Determine the desired mounting location.
  2. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and dry.
  3. Mark the position for the buffer, aligning it with the area needing protection.
  4. Use the integrated 7mm hole as a guide to drill a pilot hole or mark the mounting points.
  5. Secure the buffer using appropriate bolts or screws (not included) suitable for the mounting surface material (e.g., wood, metal).

Compatibility:

These buffers are designed for broad compatibility and can be bolted onto most solid surfaces, including wood, metal, and composite materials. They are ideal for use with trucks, trailers, horse boxes, shutter doors, motor homes, and general industrial applications requiring impact cushioning. Ensure the chosen mounting surface can support the buffer and withstand the intended impacts.

Care:

To maintain optimal performance, periodically clean the rubber buffers with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, as these can degrade the synthetic rubber over time. Inspect regularly for signs of wear or damage and replace if necessary.
