Elastomeric bearings are elastomers manufactured from synthetic and natural rubber. These bridge bearings support both translational and rotational movements through elastomer deformation. Elastomeric bearings can carry large loads and prevent lateral bulging of the elastomers.

The number of elastomer pads needed for the construction depends on the type of reinforcement used for the bridge. For instance, steel reinforces elastomeric bearings are the strongest, and plain elastomeric pads are the weakest. One of the best things about Elastomeric bridge bearings is that they are neither expensive nor require any maintenance after installation
