Urethane - where to get it?

[MrOizo]

I was wondering where one can get blocks of urtthane and have it machined into desired shapes...

is this expensive to do also?

what i wanna do is in the link and pics below.

The're engine mounts and these are made of something caled Delrin.

I was thinking that with the right dimensions i could have some made up and not have to fork out millions and wait years for them to arrive..

What you think is another idea to do... other than going stock of course

I can get it for you.

Or if you want to be flash, you can get sticks of Nolathane to machine up.

If your interested in urethane, suss out the sizes you will need and Ill get some prices for ya.

That looks more like a type of nylon bush,
Here in Christchurch I get stuff like that from a firm called engineering plastics they have all types of plastic nylon etc etc for machining purposes so look in your yellow pages for something similar or give them a ring.

I have seen a website where guy fill the original engine mounts with liquid urethane to make them stronger and stiff.

my mounts dont work like these. instead of these where the mount's bolt passes through the mount tangential, mine are basically a long bolt through the mount itself. i cant really explain but trying to find pics to explain.

Not like these:




But rather like these:

Have a chat to BNT if you hadnt already,
they should be able to help,

from memory someone also makes solid mounts with rubber washes ateach end or something overly crazy

I want to do the same thing http://www.geocities.com/ae82power/umounts.html
Where can I get the urethane from at a reasonable price?http://www.mr2supercharger.com/engmounts.html

I got mine done by Thorndon Rubber down here in Welly. You'd need to talk to the boss about it.
I also used new mounts and got the gaps filled, thus they didnt have any problems with greese and oil

I second that,
I went for a tour of autolign, they do a lot of custom work with nolathane.
They showed us some engine mounts for a fleet of busses they were making.
Plenty of experience in that place.
