Title: Powertech Vibration Isolater
Post by: Kent Speers on April 22, 2011, 05:55:21 pm
Last year I remember seeing some posts regarding replacement of the rubber/urethane vibration isolaters for the Powertech generator. I don't remember if it was for the older units like mine. Someone found the isolaters from Lord Ind. at a very reasonable price. I have been searching the board and google and can't find that reference. I am ready to place an order. Can anyone help?

Replaced mine a year ago, powertech was great to deal with............in fact they shipped two different types, I installed one set and returned the set that I didn't use.

          It is not that one as it is only 2 3/8 square. Check the square dimension. It should be 3 1/4". The correct part number is 283P-155. It is called a "Heavy Duty Plateform mount" by Lord.
Here is the web site,
Item # 283P-155, Heavy-Duty Plateform Mount Series on RPM Mechanical, Inc. (http://rpmmech.thomasnet.com/item/plateform-mounts/heavy-duty-plateform-mounts-square-/pn-1801?)
For approx $26.00 each + shipping which was reasonable as I recall, in late 2008 I bought 4 from;

Mid Atlantic Rubber
Baltimore, MD

Thanks to all. I actually found that I had saved the pertinent information on my own computer back when it was posted. I should have checked there first.

Does anyone know for sure that the same mounts are used on a 1993 as used on a 1994 or 1995? They sure look the same.
