TICO Z/PA Machinery Mounting Material 

Tico ZPA

TICO Z/PA is a synthetic rubber bonded cork.
Although it is generally used for structural applications, TICO Z/PA has now been adapted for the machinery mounting market.

This blend of rubber and cork gives Z/PA a high damping factor and is therefore suitable for a wide variety of applications.

Typical Properties:

Maximum Load-bearing Capacity: 1400 KN/m2 (200 psi)
Recommended Working Stress:  Although capable of high stress without breakdown, we recommend maximum compressive strain be limited to 20% in order to ensure a low creep rate. 
Ultimate Breakdown: In excess of 4.5 x the maximum recommended working stress
Hardness:   48° ± 5° IRHD 
Co-efficient of Friction  0.69 TICO to concrete, 0.59 TICO to bright mild steel
Temperature Range  -40°C to +100°C
Dimensional Stability Dimensionally stable under widely varying atmospheric conditions
Thermal Conductivity 0.251 W/m.K
Edge Protection For severe applications, pad edges are double coated during manufacture with hypalon protective lacquer.

 
Availability:

Maximum Sheet Size (mm):  1200x915
Thicknesses (mm):  6, 12.5, 25 


Cut pieces can also be supplied.

This grade of TICO is fully compatible with the TICO S Washers and Collars.
