Automotive-Grade Strut Mounts: Precision NVH Solutions for Demanding Conditions
GJBUSH: The Strut Mount OEM/ODM Manufacturer. Validated by SGS IATF 16949, we leverage 28 years of automotive OEM experience to deliver "Source Factory" precision—from proprietary rubber mixing to final assembly.
GJBUSH: Your Preferred IATF 16949 Certified Suspension Parts Factory
Proprietary Rubber Formulations (Database-Driven)
We own a proprietary materials database built on long-term SN, EN, and CAE analysis. Our proprietary formulations are rigorously tested for stiffness, stress, and aging, ensuring durability that exceeds OEM requirements of 5 years / 100,000 km.
IATF 16949 Automotive Standard (SGS Certified)
Our factory is certified by SGS for IATF 16949. We strictly follow APQP/PPAP processes, ensuring every strut mount assembly (including Custom Rubber Parts and pressed bearings) has "consistent quality."
Cross-Industry Technology Migration (Heavy-Duty Proven)
We successfully "migrate" our automotive suspension NVH solutions to equally demanding sectors like Agricultural Machinery (Cabin Mounts) and Construction Equipment. The same engineering DNA ensures reliability under extreme impact.
Professional OEM/ODM Manufacturing (Source Factory)
As the direct factory, we control the complete process, from tooling and rubber-to-metal bonding to bearing press-fitting. We specialize in flexible, reliable, and cost-effective OEM/ODM production.
More Than a Connection: The "System Core" for Bearing, Steering, & Isolation
The Strut Mount is the upper pivot of the suspension (esp. MacPherson strut). It must perform three core functions simultaneously:
- Bearing Load High-Load Support: Acts as the upper pivot, supporting vehicle weight. Our metal housings undergo Automated Phosphating (not just sandblasting) to create a crystalline surface, preventing rust and ensuring a 100% structural bond under heavy loads.
- Isolation (NVH) Superior Vibration Filtering: We utilize a proprietary Materials Database to precisely tune the rubber’s dynamic/static stiffness ratio. Through CAE Optimization, we analyze stress concentrations to design rubber geometries that effectively filter high-frequency road vibrations while preventing premature fatigue cracks.
- Steering Pivot Precision Steering Axis: Integrated with high-precision bearings and press-fitted with strict interference control. Validated by MTS fatigue testing, ensuring smooth rotation and zero noise even after 100,000 km.
The GJBUSH Manufacturing Advantage:
Our core competency is the absolute control of the rubber-to-metal bond, ensuring zero delamination under severe impacts. Our proprietary formulations perfectly balance the contradiction between “handling” (stiffness) and “comfort” (damping).
One Suspension Concept, Driving Multiple Industries: GJBUSH Mount Real-World Applications
To maintain professional rigor, strut mounts (and their technical derivative, cabin mounts) are primarily applied in the following relevant, high-demand industries.
Automotive NVH Solutions
Serving automotive OEMs for 28 years, providing MacPherson front strut mount assemblies (with/without bearings), rear shock upper mounts, and spring isolators.
Agricultural Machinery
Cabin Suspension Mounts for tractors and combines. This technology is a direct derivative of strut mounts, isolating operators from intense engine and terrain vibration.
Construction & Building
Cabin isolation systems for excavators, loaders, and heavy-duty mine trucks, as well as axle suspension top mounts for extreme durability and impact resistance.
Railway & Public Transport
Primary suspension components (axle box rubber spring pads) and vertical/lateral isolators for operator cabins and passenger car connections.
Industrial Machinery (Heavy Mobile Equipment)
Engine and suspension mounts for large mobile generator sets, air compressors, and specialized industrial vehicles, ensuring stability during operation and transit.
We are the manufacturer. GJBUSH's SGS IATF 16949 system governs every step, from R&D to final assembly.

Metal Prep (Automated) Phosphating & Coating:
We use Automatic Shot Blasting followed by Phosphating lines and dual-layer Chemlock adhesive application (automated rolling) to ensure an unbreakable rubber-metal bond.
High-Pressure Vulcanization Precision Molding:
Production utilizes 400T/300T Automatic Injection Machines. Parameters (Temp/Pressure/Time) are monitored via MES for full traceability.
Press-Fit & Testing:
Precision Assembly & Validation: For strut mounts with integrated bearings, we use Automated Press-Fitting with strict force-displacement monitoring. Every unit undergoes 100% On-line Bonding Detection to ensure the rubber-metal interface is flawless before packaging.

Trust from Harsh Conditions: GJBUSH x Heavy Machinery Cabin Mounts
When leading Agricultural and Construction Machinery OEMs sought an NVH solution for their operator cabins, they faced a challenge: extreme Whole Body Vibration (WBV) and components that must survive mud, chemicals, and constant high-amplitude impacts.
- The Challenge: Vibration amplitudes and shock loads far exceed those of passenger cars, requiring extreme weather resistance (UV, ozone, oil) and fatigue life.
- The GJBUSH Solution: We “migrated” our 28 years of automotive OEM strut mount technology. Using our materials database and CAE, we developed a specialized EPDM proprietary formula and designed a heavy-duty mount structure with “progressive stiffness.”
- The Result: Our cabin mount assemblies significantly reduced operator WBV. Their durability far exceeded client expectations, helping multiple heavy machinery OEMs improve their product comfort and reliability.

GJBUSH Tech Guide: How to Select the Right Strut Mount for Your Application
The wrong bushing leads to premature failure. The GJBUSH process is scientific and traceable:
Analyze Loads & Conditions (CAE Simulation)
We define vertical and lateral loads using CAE Stress Cloud Maps. By identifying stress concentration points early, we optimize the geometry to prevent premature cracking.
Match the Materials (Proprietary Formulation)
NR (Natural Rubber): Optimized for passenger cars with high resilience and low heat buildup.
EPDM: Engineered for Heavy Industry/Ag-Machinery, offering superior resistance to UV, Ozone, and high temperatures (up to 120°C+).
Balance Stiffness vs. Comfort
Strut mount design is an art of balancing Dynamic vs. Static Stiffness. GJBUSH’s experience allows us to tune this ratio, ensuring sharp handling without sacrificing ride comfort (NVH).
Common Questions About Custom Strut Mounts
What is the relationship between your [Cabin Mounts] and automotive [Strut Mounts]?
They are “cognate technologies.” Both are “elastic-damping” assemblies designed to isolate high-intensity vibration and shock. We “migrate” our 28 years of automotive strut mount R&D (our materials database, CAE analysis) and quality system (SGS IATF 16949) to the Ag/Construction sectors, providing cabin comfort and durability far beyond the industry standard.
Can your [cabin mounts] handle harsh [agricultural] environments?
Absolutely. We developed high-performance EPDM proprietary formulations for this exact purpose. They offer extreme resistance to UV, ozone, and temperature. Our heavy-duty bonding and salt-spray testing ensure reliability in mud, chemicals, and high-shock conditions.
As an OEM/ODM factory, what is your MOQ?
The MOQ depends on the assembly’s complexity. As a source factory, we are highly flexible for co-development (R&D) projects. We are focused on long-term technical partnerships.
What is the lead time for new tooling and T0 samples?
Generally, our in-house tooling center can deliver T0 (first-off-tool) samples approximately 3-4 weeks after final drawing confirmation.
