Abstract

A reinforced elastomer attachment joint includes an elastomer section (304) butt bonded to a FIBERGLAS section (332), a boundary line (340) being defined therebetween. One or more fabric plies (338) are embedded within the elastomer (304) and FIBERGLAS (332) sections so as to be capable of transmitting loads from the elastomer section (304) to the FIBERGLAS section (332). The rigid FIBERGLAS section (332) is capable of being drilled and countersunk so as to accomodate fastening means (306) whereby the attachment joint can be secured to basic support structure (302).
