Spring Mounts & Acoustic Hangers
We offer a range of high-performance anti vibration spring mounts, spring hangers and Acoustic Hangers. They are available for a range of different applications such as applications within the HVAC and Power Generation Industry. Spring mounts and acoustic hangers that utilise steel coil springs are capable of providing high levels of deflection which achieves optimium vibration reduction. In addition, we provide Wire rope mounts that can be manufactured in various designs and configurations. Spring mounts are highly effective for reducing vibration with up to 99% efficiency. Browse our full range below.
Enclosed Spring Mounts
Spring Mountings are a High Performance Product, capable of achieving up to 99% Vibration Reduction. They are suitable for mounting Industrial Machinery, Power Generation, HVAC and Building Services Equipment, and come in two distinct types;
Enclosed Spring Mountings consist of steel coil springs mounted within a steel cup. The Steel cup controls the lateral movement of the mounted equipment and also contains a snubbing ring to control start-up and shutdown movements. Ideal for Industrial Machinery. The mountings are supplied with a top fixing bolt to allow for levelling after installation, and can be supplied with an oil resistant anti-slip pad under the steel base.
Applications:
■ Static Generating Sets
■ HVAC (Fans, Pumps, AHU, Chillers)
■ Slow Speed Equipment
■ School, Hospital and Residential Installations
Stainless Steel Spring Mounts

Open Spring Mounts
Spring Mountings are a High Performance Product, capable of achieving up to 99% Vibration Reduction. They are suitable for mounting Industrial Machinery, Power Generation, HVAC and Building Services Equipment, and come in two distinct types;
Open Spring Mountings consist of a single coil spring mounted onto a fixing plate. They provide excellent vibration reduction properties, particularly for slow speed equipment such as Fans and HVAC equipment. The mountings can be supplied with an oil resistant anti-slip pad under the steel base.Applications:
■ Static Generating Sets
■ HVAC (Fans, Pumps, AHU, Chillers)
■ Slow Speed Equipment
■ School, Hospital and Residential Installations
Acoustic Spring Hangers
Hangers are available in 2 types. Rubber hangers and Steel coil spring hangers. Rubber Hangers are extremely cost effective, whilst steel coil spring hangers offer high performance.
Applications Include:

Wire Rope Isolators
Wire Rope Shock mountings are an “All Metal” design, providing multidirectional absorption of High Level Shock and Vibration. The all-metallic design allows these mountings to be used in extremely harsh conditions, including corrosive and high temperature environments. The mountings can be manufactured in various designs and configurations, where the wire rope can be produced in Galvanised Steel or Stainless Steel, with load ranges from 0.1Kg to 5000Kg.
Non-Magnetic Versions available on request.
Applications:
■ Naval Vessels
■ Military & Defence
■ Aerospace
■ Transit Packaging
Anti Vibration Spring Mounts
They come in two distinct types: enclosed spring and open spring mounts. Enclosed anti vibration spring mounts consist of a steel helical coil spring installed within a lower cup and upper cup. The open spring mounts consist of a steel helical coil spring mounted vertically between an upper fixing and lower bracket. Both types provide excellent vibration reduction and can be mounted to various industrial equipment including static generator sets, slow speed equipment and more.
FAQs
- What are acoustic hangers?
Simply put, they a type of specialised suspension device that works to reduce noise and vibration between structures. They are often used in buildings as a vibration mitigation solution, and help to create a quieter and more comfortable environment.
How do they work?
Acoustic hangers work by decoupling two structures, which reduces the amount of noise and vibration that can effectively travel between those structures. The design itself is made of resilient materials and an isolating mechanism. The end result is a device which makes the transfer of noise and vibration between two structures extremely difficult, thus mitigating excessive vibration and sound waves.
Where are they used?
They are most commonly found in commercial and domestic applications, where there is a strong need to reduce noise and vibration. Residential buildings which house a number of occupants, for example, may make use of acoustic hangers to reduce noise and vibration disturbances between rooms. You may also find them in commercial and industrial settings, where vibration and noise can have a negative impact on facility output.
What benefits do acoustic hangers offer?
You are likely to experience a number of benefits when using acoustic hangers as a means to control noise and vibration. Specifically to the product, they are easy to install and largely inconspicuous.
More broadly however, the device itself offers you the opportunity to be compliant with noise regulations. They are also likely to maximise occupant comfort within any space through the reduction in vibration and noise. Finally, those in a commercial setting are better equipped to comply with health and safety regulations.
Can they be used in existing buildings?
Yes, they can. Retrofitting is possible because of the ease of installation as well as the inconspicuous nature of the device. Meaning, placing an acoustic hanger between an existing structure is not a large renovation. In many cases, these devices are used in existing buildings, as well as newer properties, to manage vibration and optimise sound insulation.
Are they easy to install?
Yes, one of the main benefits of these devices is that they are easy to install. This will of course depend on the application, but in the majority of cases the hangers can be easily attached to the structure wall for the desired effect.
Do acoustic hangers require maintenance?
They are typically hassle free, meaning they provide a means to reduce noise and vibration without copious amounts of ongoing maintenance. Of course on occasion, things go wrong and the device may need to be repaired or replaced. However, you can expect the majority of acoustic hangers to require little maintenance whilst still offering excellent levels of noise and vibration control.
Are they environmentally friendly?
Although not strictly considered a product with the aim of being environmentally friendly, they do offer solutions that have a positive impact. The reduction in noise and vibration that is offered throughout a building, for example, can eliminate the need for excessive amounts of insulating materials. This is good for the environment, as insulating materials typically do not score well on the environmentally friendly list.
How do I choose the right acoustic hangers for my project?
In the case of choosing a suitable product, we at AV Industrial Products would always encourage you to contact us directly. We have a wealth of commercial experience and technical expertise. As a result, we are uniquely qualified to advise prospective customers on the best product for their needs. We manufacture a number of acoustic hangers that are suitable for a range of applications and weight bearings. Talk to us to find out more.
Are they cost-effective?
They are cost effective in the sense that they require little ongoing maintenance. This reduces the time, energy and money spent on assigning someone to complete periodic maintenance work.
