Continental SAM Springs Provides Airless Solution for Vibration Isolation and Shock Impact

Las Vegas, NV, March 14, 2023 — Continental has introduced a new line of Shock Absorbing Mount (SAM) Springs for shock absorption in industrial applications. SAM Springs provides exceptional isolation from shocks and vibration and can provide an airless solution where air springs might normally be used. Formed as a thick-walled cylinder, Continental SAM Spring is made of a natural rubber compound, reinforced with four layers of fabric, and an outer layer of rubber. The natural rubber core helps reduce vibrations and, unlike steel springs, SAM does not transmit high frequency structural noise. The highly robust rubber and fabric compounds ensure a long lifetime and reliable service, even in damp or corrosive conditions.

Lower noise, reduced downtime

Continental SAM Spring’s innovative design can cut costs in many industrial applications. They can help ensure better working conditions by cutting noise levels dramatically when compared to steel springs. Continental SAM springs can reduce downtime and increase efficiency. The SAM Spring’s simple and rugged design is virtually maintenance-free and can be used in a wide range of applications such as compressors, bin hoppers, blowers, motors, cranes, excavators, and more. The SAM Spring is offered in 27 different sizes and specifications to cover a wide range of applications.
