We recently posted a new Snubber article on our website. It provides a technical look into both hydraulic and mechanical snubbers - how they are used in a piping system and how they function. Most importantly, the article tells you the difference between various types of snubbers which is helpful in choosing the appropriate snubber for your piping system needs.
