LD 13 and LD 17 Damping Pads for Structure-Borne Sound Damping
Self-Adhesive Damping Materials for Vibration-Prone Components
The self-adhesive antiphon® LD 13 and LD 17 damping pads are applied directly to vibration-prone components. They reduce vibration decay and panel drumming in structures made from sheet metal, plastic and suitable wood-based materials.
The paintable surface is also suitable for applications in which the material is subsequently painted or exposed to an appropriate paint-baking process.
Typical Applications
- machine guards and protective covers
- machine tools and production machinery
- conveying systems and chutes
- ventilation and air-conditioning components
- lift cabins
- garage doors and industrial doors
- facade elements and window sills
- bathtubs, shower trays and sinks
- domestic appliances and technical housings
Properties
- self-adhesive backing
- reduces component vibrations and panel-drumming noise
- suitable for sheet-metal, plastic and appropriate wood-based structures
- paintable surface for further technical processing
- suitable for temperatures up to approximately 180 °C for brief periods
- available as full-size sheets, custom-cut parts or die-cut parts
Available Versions
antiphon® LD 13
LD 13 is the thinner version for applications where installation space is limited or less additional weight is required.
Material thickness: 1.7 mm
Continuous temperature range: –30 °C to +120 °C
Full sheet size: approx. 1,000 × 1,020 mm
Further processing: suitable for temperatures up to approximately 180 °C for brief periods, for example during paint baking
antiphon® LD 17
LD 17 is the thicker version and is suitable for applications where a greater material thickness is technically possible or required.
Material thickness: 2.6 mm
Continuous temperature range: –30 °C to +120 °C
Full sheet size: approx. 1,000 × 1,020 mm
Further processing: suitable for temperatures up to approximately 180 °C for brief periods, for example during paint baking
Custom-Cut and Die-Cut Parts
OTO Akustiktechnik supplies LD 13 and LD 17 not only as full-size sheets. On request, we also manufacture custom-cut and die-cut parts according to drawings, samples or specified dimensions.
The following information is particularly helpful when requesting a quotation:
- required version: LD 13 or LD 17
- drawing, sketch or sample component
- dimensions and component geometry
- required quantity
- application and temperature conditions
- planned painting or further processing

Processing Instructions
For reliable adhesion, the component surface must be clean, dry and free from oil, grease, dust and other residues.
- clean and dry the substrate thoroughly
- process the material and component at room temperature where possible
- position the damping pad evenly and avoid trapped air
- press the material down over its entire surface using sufficient pressure
- pay particular attention to edges, corners and curved areas
- observe the temperature and processing instructions in the data sheet
