Description
Submarine Shock Absorber
Shock absorbers from the UK submarine fleet.
We’re reliably informed that these shock absorbers form the mounts for equipment and engines in a sub.
Designed to take out the constant vibrations from a submarines engine these are integral to the engineering of our Royal Navy Submarine fleet.
We have a lot of these and can make them into one off table lights to your specification.
We’ve made and sold a fair array of these as table lights to date, we tend to leave an exposed LED lamp out of the top operated by a tiny little toggle switch but we could also make them with the light inside the oval shape or even with diffusers.
We could even make these into up and down lights (wall mounted or table top) with the clever use of low profile LED spots.
We’d love to hear your ideas and if you’d like us to do the work then we’ll be happy to provide a cost for one off projects or large runs of these for hotels and clubs for example.

Priced individually and un-converted but we will consider project ideas you have to make them into eg lights.
Our aim at GB Salvage is to create stunning industrial furniture made with parts from planes, boats, subs and heavy industry. This aim inevitably means we buy a lot of stock that is very time consuming and costly to convert into finished furniture. Therefore in this category you will find parts and components. You can then ask us to convert these items for you or we’ll happily help you do it. Alongside rusty parts we haven’t yet had time to convert, you’ll also find our finished projects. We have a range of beautiful seats, tables and mirrors.
We hope that showing our raw materials will help inspire project and furniture ideas you’ll want to discuss. As you’ll see we also sell the components ready for conversion.
Under certain circumstances, we also offer a rental service for film companies, sets, props and one off events. So please get in touch if you’d like to come and see all our stock and discuss a project.
A range of military parts sourced from the MOD ranging from a small cog right up to missile bases, bombs and 6m long fuel tanks. We focus on British military goods but do occasionally find foreign military pieces of interest. And we also specialise in modern era militaria but do have the odd antique gunsight for example on offer.
We convert and restore every item we can but occasionally have to offer our components for sale to generate space. Therefore in this section you’ll find items we haven’t yet got to. We’d love to discuss your project idea and can convert items to your specification. We undertake work for private and commercial clients.
