Introduction

Precision Engineering for Stone Facades

Our Hard Rubber Pads are specifically designed for stone dry-hanging systems to provide a critical buffer between the stone panels and the metal support structure. These pads ensure uniform load distribution and prevent direct contact friction, significantly extending the lifespan of the facade assembly.

Benefits

Why Choose APEX Hard Rubber Pads

  • Superior Vibration Damping and Noise Reduction

    Effectively absorbs structural vibrations and wind-induced movement, preventing noise and potential cracking in stone panels.

  • High Load-Bearing and Compression Resistance

    Manufactured with high-density rubber to maintain thickness and structural integrity under the heavy weight of natural stone cladding.

  • Excellent Aging and Weather Resistance

    Resistant to UV radiation, oxidation, and extreme temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-term performance in outdoor environments.

  • Optimized Load Distribution for Safety

    Provides a level seating surface that prevents stress concentrations, reducing the risk of stone fracture at the hanging points.

Standard

Customizable Specifications and Material Options

We offer hard rubber pads in a variety of standard dimensions to fit common dry-hanging brackets, with custom sizes available for specialized architectural requirements.

Available in EPDM or high-grade synthetic rubber compounds, our pads can be tailored for specific hardness levels and chemical resistance profiles based on project site conditions.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Technical information regarding the application and selection of rubber pads for curtain wall systems.

What is the primary function of these pads in a stone facade?
They act as a buffer between the stone and the stainless steel or aluminum pendant, preventing direct contact and distributing pressure evenly.
Are these pads resistant to chemical corrosion from sealants?
Yes, our EPDM-based pads are designed to be compatible with most structural and weather-proofing silicone sealants used in facade construction.
Can you provide custom thicknesses for specific gap requirements?
Absolutely. While we stock standard 3mm and 5mm thicknesses, we can manufacture custom dimensions to meet your specific engineering nodes.
How do these pads perform in extreme cold or heat?
Our high-density rubber maintains its elasticity and structural properties within a temperature range of -40°C to +120°C.
Do these pads meet international building standards for fire safety?
Our materials are tested for flame retardancy and smoke toxicity to comply with standard curtain wall safety regulations.
