Rubber-Cal General Purpose Rubber is a durable and affordable synthetic rubber made from styrene butadiene rubber (SBR). This soft elastic rubber has a durometer of 50A to give it a firm surface with a fair amount of pliability. The sheets of rubber are still tough enough to resist most indentations without sacrificing their flexible nature. This synthetic rubber sheeting boasts intense durability and can be used for a vast number of applications. This soft rubber product has been through a chemical heating process called vulcanization, increasing its durability and giving it a smooth and solid finish. SBR rubber is best known for its high abrasion resistance, making it a great material for industrial, commercial, and residential applications alike. Artificial rubbers like SBR are tougher and longer lasting than alternatives. This synthetic rubber material has excellent resistance to most physical conditions, including abrasions, moisture, and UV light. This makes the elastomer sheeting great for applications both indoors and outdoors, as the rubber material can withstand the damaging effects of weather. In addition to its intense durability, this thick sheet rubber has a working temperature range from -10 to 190 F, so it can withstand the conditions of most industrial settings without showing any wear for a long time. The heat and friction of industrial machinery is no match for this high-density rubber sheet as the synthetic elastomers are specially designed to handle extreme conditions. A few key features of styrene rubber are its natural abilities to enhance traction, absorb shock, and reduce noise. The vulcanized rubber sheet absorbs any vibrations to reduce sound and movement for a safe and reliable surface. This 3/8-in sheet rubber is the thickest of five available gauges and provides heavy-duty protection when used as protective bumpers or padding.
Made from styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) for long-lasting durability and superior abrasion resistance
SBR makes a great protective barrier because it can absorb shock, limit vibration, and reduce noise
50A durometer means that the material is on the softer side and it maintains excellent flexibility
