The OXO Good Grips Silicone Vibration Silencer is a specialized, repurpose-approved silicone mat heavily utilized in the aquarium hobby to drastically reduce harmonic rattle and low-frequency humming generated by heavy aquatic gear.
Key Specifications and Applications
Aquarium-Safe Material: Made of 100% heavy-duty, food-grade silicone that is chemically inert. It will not leach toxins, break down, or degrade when fully submerged in freshwater or harsh saltwater reef systems.
Acoustic Dampening: Features an elevated, flexible rib design. This profile acts as a shock absorber, completely isolating a pump or skimmer motor's physical contact from acrylic or glass sump floors to eliminate vibration transfer.
Thermal Resistance: Heat-resistant up to 425°F, making it entirely safe against the operational heat generated by submersed, high-capacity circulation pumps. []
Maintenance and Cleanliness: Dishwasher safe and engineered with a non-porous structure that resists the growth of bacteria and nuisance algae underneath equipment.
Available Sizing Profiles
Small: 17.0" L x 6.0" W x 0.25" H - Best for narrow sump baffles, single linear return pumps, and compact protein skimmers.
Large: 16.9" L x 12.5" W x 0.25" H - Best for massive commercial-grade AC/DC pumps, dual-pump manifolds, or full-sized heavy sumps.
