G-Sandwich Reducer
Reliable damping under the most demanding conditions
In mission-critical environments, every detail matters. The G-Sandwich Reducer protects vital systems from shocks and vibrations where other solutions fail.
Designed for defence, maritime, and industrial applications.
What is the G-Sandwich Reducer?
Extreme conditions demand technology that does not give in. The G-Sandwich Reducer is designed to:
✓ To absorb shocks
✓ Damping vibrations
✓ And to extend the operational lifespan of critical equipment.
Tested in realistic scenarios within defence and maritime environments and proven reliable where failure is not an option.
Features and benefits
1. Advanced shock absorption:
Uses a steel wire to efficiently absorb and distribute shock energy.
Minimises the transfer of shocks to sensitive components, thereby reducing the risk of damage.
2. Superior vibration isolation
Due to the unique design, excellent vibration damping is created. Maintains performance stability across a wide range of frequencies and amplitudes.
3. Durable construction:
Made from high-quality material that is resistant to wear, fatigue, and environmental degradation, it lasts at least 10 years.
Suitable for use in extreme temperatures and corrosive environments.
4. Customisable design:
Adapted to specific application requirements, including size, shape, and material composition. From a few grams to hundreds of kilograms.
Modular design allows for easy integration into existing systems and equipment.
5. Lightweight and compact:
Optimised for weight efficiency without compromising performance.
Ideal for applications where space and weight are critical considerations.
Technical specifications
Material composition: plate components are standard in aluminium, with steel wire made of stainless steel. Fully stainless steel (316) versions are also available.
Shock absorption capacity: up to 90% reduction in peak G-forces.
Vibration damping range: effective across the frequency range of 5 Hz to 1 kHz.
Operating temperature: -70°C to +500°C.
Environmental resistance: outstanding resistance to oils, chemicals, and UV radiation.
Installation and maintenance
Simple installation: can be installed using standard tools with minimal modifications to existing systems.
Low maintenance: designed for long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance requirements, reducing downtime and operational costs.
Applications
Military and Defense
Provides optimal protection for sensitive electronics and equipment in military vehicles, aircraft, and naval vessels. The system has been rigorously tested at the Sebert Test Lab and fully complies with NATO standard AECTP 400, Method 401. Proven performance includes:
- Simulation of 9 months of sea transport
- 30,000 km vibration simulation for rail transport
- 4,800 km vibration simulation for truck transport
- 5,000 km road and 1,000 km off-road shock simulation

During the initial test, without our G-Sandwich reducer, the television sustained damage within just three minutes, followed by visible smoke.
In the video on the right, you can clearly see the difference:
With our G-Sandwich reducer, the television continued to function flawlessly, even after hours of intense vibration and shock exposure.
Seeing is believing
The G-Sandwich reducer does exactly what it promises: it eliminates harmful vibrations and shocks, effectively protecting sensitive electronics from transport damage.
