Hecht rubber bumper Neoprene 1in round marine

Description

Product Overview

The Hecht Rubber Corporation presents the HRC100MS2 threaded bumper, a compact 1‑inch diameter, 5/8‑inch compressed height neoprene rubber component. Molded from solid neoprene, it resists abrasion, chemicals, and temperature extremes, making it suitable for demanding marine and industrial settings. An integral 3/8‑inch long 8‑32 brass male thread provides a reliable anchoring point for bolts, screws, or other fastening hardware.

Usage

Designed for versatile applications, this bumper excels in marine environments such as boat decks, hulls, and dock fittings, where it protects against impact and vibration. In industrial facilities, it serves as a protective buffer on machinery, conveyor systems, and piping. Homeowners can use it for bathroom fixtures, kitchen appliances, or any nonporous surface requiring a secure, cushioned attachment.

FAQ

What surfaces can the bumper adhere to?

The bumper uses negative fluid pressure to cling to smooth, nonporous surfaces such as metal, glass, fiberglass, and certain plastics. It is not recommended for porous or textured materials.

Is the brass thread compatible with standard hardware?

Yes, the 8‑32 male thread matches standard ¼‑inch diameter bolts and screws commonly used in marine and industrial installations.

Can the bumper be used underwater?

While the neoprene material is water‑resistant, the adhesion mechanism relies on air or water pressure differentials, so it performs best when the surface is dry or when a slight vacuum is created.

What is the temperature range for safe operation?

The neoprene can withstand temperatures from -40°F to 200°F (-40°C to 93°C) without losing its mechanical properties.

Do I need additional fasteners?

The integrated brass thread allows you to secure the bumper directly with a compatible bolt or screw; no extra brackets are required.
