6. How much noise reduction can g-fit Gear achieve?

   The product can achieve a proven reduction of structure-borne noise of up to 11 dB ($\Delta L_w$), depending on the floor type and installation.

7. Does g-fit Gear isolate both noise and vibrations?

   Yes, the elastic material absorbs the kinetic energy, effectively isolating both the vibrations caused by machine movement and the resulting structure-borne noise.

8. What is the Natural Frequency ($\mathrm{f}_0$) of the g-fit Gear T300?

   The standard g-fit Gear T300, designed for treadmills, has a natural frequency of approximately 22 Hz.

9. Is g-fit Gear used in professional or commercial gyms?

   Yes, the entire g-fit product line is used by operators in commercial fitness centers, CrossFit boxes, and sports studios to meet demanding acoustic regulations.

10. How does it help gym operators choose a location?

    By significantly reducing sound transmission to adjoining floors, it gives operators greater flexibility in selecting a location, even on upper floors, without facing neighbor complaints or restrictions on usage times.

3. Installation & Maintenance

11. Can g-fit Gear be installed in existing gyms?

    Yes, one of its main advantages is that it can be retrofitted easily to existing training equipment, regardless of the floor covering.

12. Is the installation process complex?

    No, the system is designed for simple and efficient installation, often involving placing the modular pads directly under the feet or rollers of the equipment.

13. Is the g-fit Gear maintenance-free?

    Yes, the elastomer material is highly resilient, resistant to ageing and material fatigue, meaning the system is maintenance-free for many years.

14. What are the dimensions of the standard g-fit Gear T300 pads?

    The standard set for a treadmill typically includes two Front Pads (300 x 180 mm) and two Rear Pads (150 x 150 mm), with a thickness of 61 mm.

15. What is the maximum load capacity for the T300 set?

    The g-fit Gear T300 is designed for a load range of up to 500 kg (including the weight of the machine and the user).

4. Technical and Safety Features

16. Is the material chemically resistant?

    Yes, the material is formulated to be chemically resistant against standard floor cleaners, ensuring durability in a gym environment.

17. Is the g-fit Gear suitable for all floor types?
