Rubber-Cal Neoprene 3/4-in T x 12-in W x 36-in L Black Commercial 60A durometer Rubber Sheet

Rubber-Cal’s Neoprene rubber is a tough synthetic elastomer that is ideal for industrial applications. Sometimes referred to by its chemical name chloroprene, neoprene is a versatile material developed by DuPont in the 1930s. The introduction of rubber neoprene met the increasing demand for a synthetic rubber that could resist chemicals and outdoor conditions. While other rubber materials may degrade quickly under intense physical conditions, this industrial neoprene is designed to endure. Our neoprene rubber is actually a powerful artificial rubber compound made up of styrene butadiene rubber and chloroprene rubber to inherit the strengths of both synthetic rubber materials. This mix of synthetic elastomers gives the neoprene sheet a moderate resistance to oils, chemicals, and many damaging effects of weather. The solid neoprene has a sleek black finish, adding a professional aesthetic to this highly resistant neoprene sheeting.The key feature of this sheet neoprene is its wide range of resistance. Thanks to the unique neoprene blend that makes it up, Rubber Cal’s neoprene rubber has moderate resistance to acetic acids, petroleum-based solvents, and certain oils and chemicals. This neoprene sheet is designed to stand up to these substances that can easily degrade other rubber materials. This sheet neoprene is also highly valued in outdoor applications, as it can withstand UV rays, ozone, and damaging weather effects without showing wear for a long time. Though other synthetic rubbers may have stronger resistance to some of these conditions, no other material offers the diverse cumulation of resistance that this rubber neoprene does. Our neoprene product offers excellent all-around resistance, making it versatile enough for indoor and outdoor applications alike. This hard sheet rubber performs well in temperatures from -20° to 212° F, which makes it the ideal choice for most industrial applications.
