Faqs:
What are the key specifications of the Firestone W01-358-7731 air spring?
The W01-358-7731 features a single convoluted rubber bellow with steel top and bottom plates (4.50 inches diameter), 3/8-16 blind nuts, a 1/4 NPT air connection, and operates gas-filled. It has an expanded height of 4.5 inches and compressed height of 2.0 inches, with a max bellow diameter of 6.5 inches.
How does the air spring perform in vibration isolation applications?
It offers dynamic vibration isolation with characteristic values for force (2.9 to 7.7 KN), spring rate (855 to 2050 N/cm), and natural frequency (2.6 to 2.8 Hz) across pressures from 3 to 8 bar, ensuring stable performance at the recommended design height of 115mm.
What construction options are available for higher pressure requirements?
For higher pressures, the air spring is available in high-strength construction with either four layers of fabric-reinforced rubber or two layers of special high-strength cord, along with an inner liner and outer cover for enhanced durability.
Are there different mounting configurations for the W01-358-7731?
Yes, it comes in various configurations including blind nuts (1/4 NPT or 3/4 NPT), socket head aluminum bead rings (bolts not included), and rubber bellows only, allowing flexibility for different installation needs.
