Hasse & Wrede supply a full range of torsional vibration dampers for application in all kinds of ships.

The visco-damper provides the necessary torsional vibration damping effect by resilient, damped coupling of the secondary mass (inertia ring) to primary mass (housing).

Hasse & Wrede's visco-dampers operate at a higher temperature than other damper systems due to temperature stabilized silicone oil.

A damper that is in poor condition will increase the torsional vibrations of the engine, resulting in an increase in material stresses of the crankshaft and eventually in a crankshaft failure.

Our internationally acknowledged laboratory can carry out an inexpensive and fast silicone oil analysis.


NCE specialises in the analysis and reduction of underwater noise, implementing controls such as this two-stage isolation system for centerline gensets.

NCE implements innovative methods to optimise the effectiveness of the treatment whilst keeping the adverse impact on space, weight and cost to a minimum.

NCE conducts underwater radiated noise trials, such as the one shown for the NOAA fisheries research vessel.

NCE has measured source noise and vibration levels for all types of marine equipment, such as diesels, gas turbines, compressors and pumps.

NCE has developed the special software, Designer Noise, to accurately predict shipyard noise and allow the optimal implementation of treatments.


Trelleborg Industrial AVS supplies anti-vibration mountings and suspension systems for passenger vessels, naval vessels and leisure boats.

The RRS Ernest Shackleton research vessel, pictured, used Metalastik® mounting brackets to effectively reduce vibrations.

Patrol boats, with twin MTU 16V2000 engines, built by Austal Shipyard. These engines are installed on Cushyfloatâ„¢ anti-vibration mountings to reduce rebound stiffness.


Among our marine products is the company's flagship product - Vibrostop MM stainless steel mounts - homologated by the Italian Navy.

Intended for less extreme applications the Vibrostop AA with an aluminium case shares the same MM concept and features replaceable elastic bodies and a great ability to withstand overloads and operate safely.

Vibrostop Mopla spring mounts allow greater deflection, thus in on-shore applications they provide better isolation in any environment and at any temperature.

Vibrostop Moflex is the solution for reducing the turbulence generated by pumps that propagates noise and vibration along pipe ducts.

Vibrostop Cavoflex cable mounts allow the safe fitting of machinery where shock and vibration isolation is required.
