Tecumseh 70834-2 Rubber Grommet

The Tecumseh 70834-2 Rubber Grommet is a critical industrial-grade component engineered to provide vibration isolation and mechanical protection for hermetic compressors and electrical enclosures. Designed to withstand the rigorous demands of high-back pressure and low-back pressure systems, this heavy-duty rubber grommet features a high-density synthetic composition that resists compression set, ensuring it maintains its structural integrity and noise reduction properties despite constant mechanical stress. As an essential HVAC mounting hardware part, the 70834-2 facilitates a precise, secure fit in standard mounting holes, effectively sealing sensitive electrical connections against moisture and environmental contaminants. For technicians managing commercial refrigeration parts, this authentic OEM Tecumseh replacement is vital for preventing the metal-on-metal abrasion that often leads to premature terminal venting or suction line fatigue. Utilizing this vibration isolator during installation or maintenance allows for consistent system performance and decreased decibel levels across internal and external cabinetry.

• Superior Vibration Dampening: High-tensile rubber absorbs harmonic resonance, significantly lowering the operating noise of Tecumseh AE and AK compressors.
• Enhanced Material Longevity: Resistant to chemical exposure, temperature fluctuations, and oil mist, preventing the rubber from hardening or shearing over time.
• Tool-Free Installation: Precision-molded for a snap-fit application, providing a reliable seal without the need for additional adhesives or specialized fasteners.
• Critical Component Protection: Acts as a buffer between rigid panels and wiring, preventing insulation abrasion and short circuit risks in industrial electrical panels.

Is the 70834-2 compatible with all Tecumseh hermetic models?
While designed for standard hermetic mounting plates, specifically within the AE2410Y and AK series footprints, always verify your specific mounting hole diameter and panel thickness before installation to ensure a secure seat.

Why is my new compressor grommet not lining up with the mounting studs?
This often occurs due to rigid piping connections or incorrect compression. Ensure the compressor weight is evenly distributed across all four mounting points and that the 70834-2 is fully seated before tightening the mounting nuts.

Can I use these grommets for electrical enclosure wire management?
Yes. Beyond compressor mounting, this part is frequently utilized as a chassis grommet in HVAC control boxes to protect power leads from sharp sheet metal edges.
