Urethane shock absorbing pads effectively and safely disperse and absorb energy. Energy dissipates outward, away from the source of the shock impact, so that the object or the object’s internal components are not damaged. Urethane shock absorbers can come in many hardnesses and shapes. They are used in many applications, including grommets, pads, dampers, bumpers, bushings, sheets, rings, hemispheres, and more.
