Rubber-Cal Neoprene 1/16-in T x 12-in W x 24-in L Black Commercial 80A durometer Rubber Sheet

Rubber-Cal’s Neoprene sheets are a tough synthetic rubber material that is ideal for industrial applications. Introduced by the DuPont Company in the 1930s, rubber neoprene is a versatile material designed to meet the demand for a chemical and outdoor resistant synthetic rubber. While other sheet rubber materials may degrade quickly under intense physical conditions, this vulcanized neoprene is designed to endure. Our neoprene sheets are actually a powerful synthetic rubber compound made up of SBR rubber and chloroprene rubber to inherit the strengths of both synthetic elastomers. The result is a reliable and resilient sheet neoprene with a sleek, black finish. Thanks to this mix of rubber materials, the neoprene rubber has a moderate resistance to oils, chemicals, and many damaging effects of weather. This durable neoprene has excellent abrasion resistance and works great in industrial and commercial applications.The key feature of this rubber neoprene is its wide range of resistance. Thanks to the unique neoprene elastomer compound that makes it up, Rubber Cal’s sheet neoprene has moderate resistance to acetic acids, petroleum-based solvents, and certain oils and chemicals. These neoprene sheets are designed to stand up to these substances that can easily degrade other synthetic rubber types. This industrial neoprene is also highly valued in outdoor applications, as it can withstand UV rays, ozone, and damaging weather effects. Though other rubber materials may have stronger resistance to some of these conditions, no other elastomer offers the diverse cumulation of resistance that this neoprene rubber does. This thin sheet rubber is backed with pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) to skip costly installation and instead turn it into an easy DIY project. Our adhesive neoprene sheets offer excellent all-around resistance, making them versatile enough for indoor and outdoor applications alike.
