Polyurethane engine cushions
It is not difficult to buy engine cushions now. But the question of how long a new part will last always remains relevant. After all, replacing the motor support, as this element is also called, is a time-consuming process. Also, the failure of the engine cushion immediately affects the quality and comfort of the ride, because it is this engine support – dampens motor oscillations during ego operation. And it also does not allow the engine to move relative to the body.
Types of engine cushions
Motor pillow — this is such a fastening unit that works on the same principle as the silent blocks in the suspension arms, so the characteristics of the elastic element are important here: tensile strength and torsional strength. There are main types of internal combustion engine supports, such as: rubber, pneumatic and hydraulic. The "PolyPro" company offers polyurethane engine cushions for such cars as: Lanos, Mazda, Honda, Nissan and others, namely:
- upper engine cushion,
- rear engine cushion,
- lower engine cushion,
- front engine cushion,
- right engine cushion,
- left engine pillow, depending on the equipment and make of your car.
There are arguments in favor of hydraulic engine supports such as optimal maintenance of the engine at different speeds. But how durable are such products in the conditions of our roads? Therefore, if it is necessary to repair this unit in Nissan Primera, Volkswagen Passat, Daewoo Lanos, Audi, Mazda, Skoda, Honda cars, many people decide to buy polyurethane engine cushions.
The advantage of polyurethane engine cushions
Hydraulic engine cushion or polyurethane? The hydraulic cushions of the engine mounting have a more advanced design and are better adjusted to the technical features of the engine compared to the rubber-metal ones. The hydraulic part of the engine cushion rarely suffers from physical wear. Usually, the rubber part is damaged first, losing its elasticity over time due to gradual delamination from the metal, cracks and microtears. Engine support pillows made of polyurethane can be an alternative to hydromechanical pillows. Their growing popularity is explained by several factors:
- Polyurethane supports of DVS have high strength and durability,
- polyurethane makes pillows made of this material less prone to wear,
- provide more reliable engine mounting,
- increases the stability and controllability of the car on the road,
- polyurethane absorbs vibrations well,
- increased comfort during driving.
Also, the strength of this elastomer is 4-5 times higher than that of rubber, and the hardness is the same, 65 A according to Shore. Polyurethane pillows can withstand heavy loads, temperature changes, and are resistant to the effects of active chemicals. In general, polyurethane engine mounts are the preferred choice for those who value reliability, durability and increased comfort while driving.
