The rubber is easy to cut with a jack saw to shape as you want but is a fab substitute for stand bump stops.

I got one from a pal which was about 3” long and really dense material. Carved it up to suit, dressed it up and sprayed it black. You can file it, cut it and it’s oil and heat resistant.
Fork lift ones are harder generally so the preferred choice if you’re having to make one. About a fiver usually.

Is the material Delrin Roo?  It's like a tough nylon stuff but maybe what the OP should look for

Laverdaroo:
I really wouldn’t know Dom, it worked a bloody charm tbh. But yeah, like a rubberised nylon type stuff.

It was either a bump stop for the sliding decks on the forklift raising bed or gearbox mounts, one or the other it was the fact it was dirt cheap and being a consumable, predrilled thing it was a cost effective easy mod.
