Right, I think they are a shock absorber so if you let go of the brake too soon
it won't slam the rotator, also to help prevent shock loading due to gusty
winds. I think. Seems pretty pricey for two stamped plates and four
polyurethane bumpers, though.

What is it? It appears to be a rotator mounting plate or adapter plate to fit
a particular rotator to a specific tower. If so, couldn't you take the
dimensions to a local machine shop, or does it have some torsional absorption
properties as the name would imply?
Have you tried Texas Towers? I doubt they'd stock them, but might be willing to
order one. HRO?
A bit of searching turned up

watch out for line wrap.
They do show in stock.
73 es good luck
