SKE ELASTOMERIC BEARINGS

Embedding in 6 mm epoxy mortar 
 LAYING  
  • The surface onto which the SKE bearings are to be laid should be smooth and free from sharp projections.
  • It is not usually necessary to fix the bearings in place since since the friction between the rubber and the support surfaces is ordinarily adequate. In cases where the friction is insufficient (eg low vertical load combined with large horizontal movement) some form of fixing may be required.
  • The illustration shows an SKE Bearing fixed in 6mm epoxy mortar beds.
  • Additional details are available in the relevant fitting instructions sheet.
