Light Vehicle Products | MCU Components MCU Top Mounts Isolate road noise and more effectively react shock loads with high amplitude damping and a long linear rate response Micro Cellular Polyurethane (MCU) top mounts are used for the wheel-controlling connecting links that reduce the transfer of dynamic loads from the suspension into the chassis, isolate road noise, and more effectively react shock loads with high amplitude damping combined with a long linear rate response. MCU top mounts perform two basic functions. They reduce the rolling noise in the vehicle and react the shock inputs such as driving over bumps or potholes. Overall, they help improve the vehicle comfort and handling characteristics. Top mounts with spring seats made of MCU help to isolate tire noise. And thanks to the high-volume compressibility of MCU, the housing size can be reduced, which has positive knock-on effects on costs, weight, and space requirements. Vibracoustic can offer multiple MCU material and design options, including full top mount assemblies. Low temperature MCU material and multiple rubber material options are available as needed for each customer application. Another benefit of using Micro Cellular Polyurethane (MCU) is that it can be easily tuned and optimized by changing the material’s density. There is usually no need to change chemistries or part geometry, providing a cost and time efficient development process. About MCU Components Micro Cellular Urethane (MCU) components combine maximum performance, high comfort and lightweight versatility. The material provides superior abrasion, tear and chemical resistance along with high tensile strength and a low compression set. It is also resistant to automotive fluids and ozone. MCU components are used for jounce bumpers, spring aids, spring seats, bushings, top mounts, and body mounts. more Related Products MCU Body Mounts MCU Jounce Bumpers MCU Spring Aids Downloads Code of Conduct Documents for Customers Documents for Suppliers Imprint Data Protection Legal Notice Follow us on Contact us Jobs & Career Products & Services Suppliers & Service Providers Vibracoustic Aftermarket Our Locations Media Compliance The website uses cookies to allow for the best possible user experience.
