Rubber-Cal Recycled rubber 3/8-in T x 48-in W x 4-ft L Black Commercial 60A durometer Rubber Sheet

Rubber-Cal’s Recycled Rubber material is an affordable and eco-friendly sheet rubber material that is designed for intense physical conditions. Unlike most types of synthetic rubber, purchasing and producing recycled rubber products actually has a positive effect on our environment. Production of recycled rubber sheeting takes nonbiodegradable waste out of landfills and gives it a new life! The recycled rubber material goes through light processing, keeping the cost low for a high-quality and eco-friendly elastomer sheeting. Our recycled rubber products are American-made from the tough rubber material of discarded tires, and as a result it retains many of their traits. Much like tires, our recycled rubber sheets feature enhanced traction, shock absorption, and superior outdoor resistance. Even when a tire is worn down, the rubber material retains these traits and carries them through the recycling process to result in a new and highly durable sheet rubber product. Recycled elastomer sheets get enhanced strength from the heavy-duty synthetic rubber compound that is used to make tires. Tires are generally made from a mix of SBR and EPDM synthetic elastomers, which both bring unique qualities to the recycled rubber product. EPDM gives the hard sheet rubber great protection against UV, ozone, and moisture, allowing it to exceed in outdoor applications. SBR gives the recycled rubber sheets unrivalled abrasion resistance, especially with a medium-range durometer of 60A. The 60A durometer gives the rubber material a very firm and hard surface without sacrificing its flexibility. This 3/8” sheet rubber is one of the thicker options available and works best in abrasive physical applications. Thanks to the tough synthetic rubber materials that make it up, this versatile and thick recycled rubber is great for indoor and outdoor applications alike.
