Hard drive rubber grommet is something that is in your immediate vicinity while you are reading this, without you even knowing it. As you probably know, a hard drive is part of the hardware of your computer and has the role of data storage. It contains all your documents, such as photos, music and everything else in your computer, including software. That is why it is necessary for it to function reliably, whether it is an external or internal hard drive.

Hard drive rubber grommet is one of the most important parts for the proper functioning of a hard drive. Hard drive, like the rest of your hardware, is a very sophisticated technology that does not tolerate interferences such as vibration, especially in the long run. This is exactly the purpose of the hard drive rubber grommet. Vibration isolation is necessary so that parts of the hard drive are not damaged. Rubber is certainly one of the best, if not the best material for vibration insulation. But since we offer many different types of rubber, you are probably wondering which one is the best. We can’t say that there is one type of rubber that is the best, but certainly a couple stand out.

First, you should not take a rubber grommet made of very rigid rubber, because then the vibration insulation is not so good. Most of our rubber grommets have the hardness between 30-80 Shore A. Our recommendation is silicone which is very good in vibration damping. In addition, it withstands high temperatures well, and the hard drive can get very hot, especially on some laptop models. That is why silicone is our first recommendation, but certain manufacturers of hard drives also opt for other materials. With vibration damping, hard drive rubber grommet is ideal to protect wires from metal edges.
