Snubber procurement

[parijat10]

During snubber procurement as a stress analyst what are the parameters to be provided to a vendor.

Say the snubber linear direction is in x direction.

Then I should provide the occasional load in x direction for which the snubber has to be designed and the thermal displacement in x direction.

Or should I also provide Displacements in y and z direction also.

The displacements mentioned above are displacements of the point where the snubber get connected to piping.

Thanks and Regards

Sir,

During snubber purchase what are the parameters to be provided to a vendor?

Say the snubber linear direction is in x direction. X is the stroke direction.

Then a purchaser should provide the occasional load in x direction for which the snubber has to be designed and the thermal displacement in x direction.

Or should he also provide displacements in y and z direction also i.e. for stroke calculation only x displacement is needed or y and z are also needed?

The displacements mentioned above are displacements of the point where the snubber get connected to piping.

One more thing : The stroke is considered from the middle of the snubber or from end to end of the snubber?
