- Core job: helps support and locate the engine while damping vibration so it isn't transmitted into the chassis.
- Rubber compound: built from natural and Styrene Butadiene rubber that resists wear and stays stable as it ages for long service life.
- Bonded construction: a Chemlock® bonding agent creates a superior rubber-to-metal bond.
- Application-tuned: the rubber is manufactured to a specific Durometer (hardness) based on the vehicle application, and engineered to OE standards using a CAD/CAM process.
Signs the original mount may need replacing include vibration at idle, clunking on acceleration, deceleration or shifting, and cracked or separated rubber.

How is this mount constructed?
It uses natural and Styrene Butadiene rubber that resists wear and stays stable as it ages, with a Chemlock® bonding agent for a superior rubber-to-metal bond.
What are the signs of a worn engine mount?
Common signs include vibration at idle, clunking on acceleration, deceleration or shifting, and visibly cracked or separated rubber. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
Is the rubber hardness the same for every application?
No. The rubber is manufactured to a specific Durometer (hardness) based on the vehicle application requirements, and the mount is engineered to OE standards using a CAD/CAM process.
