Absorption Pads Minimize Floor Shaking by Washing Machine
New improved design makes pads perfect for front loading washing machines.

absorption pads


4x4x1" absorption pads minimizes vibrations from HVAC/R, commercial, industrial and laundry equipment.

Unlike thin rubber pads, 1" thickness gives maximum vibration resistance between the machine and the floor. Large 4"x4" size also helps to minimize & spread the impact of the vibrations. Rubber feet and a no-slip surface prevent machine from walking.

The composite foam center is more structurally sound than cork.

Oil and chemical resistant.

Tips for Installing Under a Washing Machine

Getting the absorption pads underneath the feet of a washing machine may seem like a daunting task, but these tips will help make the job a snap.
Lift washer with bar & block.


Step 1 - Install the pads underneath the front feet first. Lift the front by using a bar and a block of wood. Lift one side, then the other. Or if you have room to maneuver, tip the washer on its back legs.


Slide pads underneath.


Step 2 - Find a helper. One person should grab the back of the washer and tip it slightly foward on its front legs. The second person should slide the pad underneath to the back feet using a yard stick or something similiar. Once both pads are in position underneath the back feet, set the washer back down.


Please keep in mind that these obsorption pads will not prevent your washing machine from shaking. The purpose of the pads is to minimize walking and minimize the vibration going into the floor.
