Landing Gear – Hard Rubber Sponge

Landing Gear – Hard Rubber Sponge A landing gear hard rubber sponge is a resilient, energy-absorbing component used in aircraft landing gear systems—most commonly in light aircraft, UAVs, and model aircraft. It is made from high-density rubber foam (sponge rubber) that combines the firmness of hard rubber with the shock-absorbing properties of a sponge structure. The material contains controlled air pockets that compress under load and recover their shape afterward.
