Is there another name for this type of shock mount (the blue part)?

I'm making a home made drip can and can only find them online in 1.5" / 2.0" diameter. I still need to figure out where/how to get the properly sized mounts – is there another term I should be searching for?

I'd like to reposition my penske reservoir to the vertical tube by the front tie bar and put the drip can on the horizontal tube under the ignition coil (where the reservoir was).

Jubilee clips / clamps
Hose clips / clamps

Why not visit a hardware store and show them what you want...?

Sorry, I should have been more specific – it's the rubber chunks that I'm wondering about (blue here, but I don't care about the color). I can't find any that have a small enough contour to fit the frame tubing tightly.

First thought, if the Penske blocks are close, perhaps 2 more could be sourced from them.

Otherwise, getting with an auto parts supplier or someone in the auto exhaust business and get some rubber blocks that you could make into what you need.

Hope this helps, Dave

Cool, thanks... I was thinking the same thing about talking to Penske, since that one would work well.

I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a common name for them that I wasn't able to figure out.
