    yes

    If you only have minor vibration, a neoprene mouse pad works well.

    I just got a new pump and just want something cheap that will work for medium vibrations until the pump breaks in. Any type of neoprene pad or just one that doesn't have anything glued to it?

    I like using 3/4" clear tubing split down the middle for a kind of pump bumper. just cram the strips of halved tubing between whatever is vibrating and it takes care of it.
