Vibration-damping Material LEGETOLEX series

Legetolex is a visco-elastic, structural damper with a high damping performance and a low weight. It consists of a thin constraining layer (aluminium or glass cloth) and a self-adhesive synthetic rubber.

This combination significantly reduces vibration and noise levels.

Features

  • High performance vibration damping
  • Extremely lightweight, reduces overall vehicle weight
  • Excellent adhesion on the vibrating structure thanks to the special rubber compound
  • Easy to apply even on curved or oily surfaces
  • Application possible before and after ED-paint process
  • Design, test and evaluation in our Automotive Technical Centre (ATC)
  • Robotic application possible
  • Improves door closure sound

Application

Legetolex finds its use in vibration damping of sheet metal panels. It is a typical automotive product, although other applications are very common as well (washers, dryers, ovens, etc).
By applying damping material to about 30% of the panel surface, sufficient noise reduction can be obtained.
