Rubber-Cal’s Neoprene sheeting is a tough rubber material that is ideal for industrial applications. Introduced by the DuPont Company in the 1930s, elastomer neoprene is a versatile material designed to meet the demand for a chemical and outdoor resistant sheet rubber material. While other synthetic rubbers may degrade quickly under intense physical conditions, this solid neoprene is designed to endure. Our industrial neoprene is actually a powerful synthetic elastomer compound made up of SBR and chloroprene rubber (CR) to inherit the strengths of both rubber materials. The result is a reliable and resilient neoprene with a sleek, black finish. Thanks to this mix of synthetic rubber materials, the vulcanized neoprene has a moderate resistance to oils, chemicals, and many damaging effects of weather. This sheet neoprene has excellent abrasion resistance and works great in industrial and commercial applications.This neoprene material has a wide range of resistance thanks to the unique sheet rubber compound that makes it up. The neoprene rubber has moderate resistance to substances that can easily degrade other rubber materials. Acetic acids, petroleum-based solvents, and certain oils and chemicals are no match for this tough sheet neoprene, which also has great outdoor abilities. This rubber neoprene is 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 types of synthetic rubber may have stronger resistance to some of these conditions, only neoprene rubber offers this diverse cumulation of resistance. Our sheet neoprene offers excellent all-around resistance, making it versatile enough for indoor and outdoor applications alike. High temperatures caused by friction and industrial machinery are no match for this thick sheet rubber, which performs in temperatures from -20° to 212° F.
This versatile neoprene compound is a mix of Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) and Neoprene
Offers moderate resistance to some oils, chemicals, abrasions, and weathering effects
Performs well in temperatures from -20°-212° F, making it great for industrial applications
The 70A durometer gives this hard rubber material a stiff surface with minimal pliability
1/4-in is a thicker option of 10 available gauges and works best in abrasive applications
