Rubber Bumper Rubber bumpers are widely used in various applications. They are defined as devices used to absorb shock between two objects. The most common application of bumpers is in vehicles. A bumper is made of various materials that can move easily. They can also have pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders which allow them to move when hit. The bumper is used to minimize the effect of collisions. Materials used can be heavy steel, plastic, painted light metal and rubber. These bumpers are widely used because they are susceptible to damage from small contacts. They are considered to be elastomeric hardware devices which are used for edge protection, cushioning, and impact absorption.

Buying Tips for Bumpers
Certain specifications are to be considered for selecting bumpers. They are as follow:
  • Shapes: Cylindrical, hemispherical, hexagonal, oval, rectangular, square and roll stock.
  • Dimensions: With the type of bumper, the dimensions vary. Head height, head diameter, stem length, stem width, overall thickness are some aspects that describe the dimensional features of bumpers.
  • Material of Construction: The material used to make a bumper should have elastic properties as well as the required hardness.
  • Hardness: Hardness allows the bumper to be rigid and resistant to pressure.
  • Compatibility Chart: It is to be noted since bumpers should be compatible with chemicals they come into contact with, an industrial elastomeric or rubber product manufacturer needs to consult a compatibility chart.
