Any mechanical
assembly in working order generates vibrations that are source
of harmful frequencies.
Finding a solution to
this critical drawback,
Daniel GASTEL designed and patented a new laminated
product called SILENTLINE®.
SILENTLINE® 
is a composite of metal and synthetic material, which has the
key advantage of spreading the vibrational energy over a
dramatically wider band (lower Q factor) - therefore dampening
the transmission of potentially destructive harmful frequencies.

- The cost
of SILENTLINE® laminated shims is virtually equivalent to
that of shims made of other laminated materials. So there is no economic
obstacle to their use.
- The
mechanical characteristics of laminated shims are improved with this
material.
CETIM tested two probes, both in 2 mn (0.08 inch) thickness :
-
The first one, of conventional form, entirely consisting of peelable
metal leaves: achieved Vickers value = 440 MPA.
-
The second one manufactured in the new material : achieved Vickers
value = 510 MPA.
-
SILENTLINE® laminated shims which thus require less
maintenance being less subject to wear.
-
Other
asset of this product and reasons why it was designed:
- It contributes to improvements of the working
environment, of benefit to all users.
- It makes it easier to achieve the
demands of noise abatement legislation
Tests carried out by CETIM on this new material show its
capacity to tone down - in a spectacular way - the two consequences of a
harmful frequency emission:
- Absorption or dampening and dispersion
of 45 to 50 % of the amplitude
- Reduction by 50 to 55 % of the emission duration.
This is therefore a high performance material

SILENTLINE® shims can be substitued
for any other wedging process:
- They do not have any cost or use inconvenience
- They offer several additional services (notably silence
and life duration) wich are of paramount importance today.
