Bumpers and Springs That Soak Up Shock – And Keep Doing It
Miner Elastomer makes TecsPak® bumpers, pads and springs that absorb more energy for their size and weight than rubber, urethane or steel coil springs, and last far longer – from tiny automation stops to haul truck suspensions. Norman G Clark supplies Miner TecsPak in Australia.

How it works
What Makes TecsPak Different
More energy per kilogram – and it lasts.
A Tougher Elastomer
TecsPak is a patented thermoplastic elastomer (TPEE) first developed for heavy railway draft gear. Its shape and Miner’s processing set exactly how it stiffens as it compresses, so a bumper can be matched to the load.
Lasts Far Longer
In comparative tests TecsPak lasted 20 times longer than urethane and 10 times longer than rubber. It is inert to dirt, oil, hydraulic fluid, petrol and diesel, and works from about −40 °C to +49 °C.
Why TecsPak, through Norman G Clark
Less Downtime, Less Maintenance
More Energy
More energy absorbed per unit of weight and volume than most known materials.
Long Life
20× urethane and 10× rubber in comparative tests.
Inert
Won’t rot, delaminate or swell in oil, grease or fuel.
