Rubber-Cal Neoprene Sheet - 70A Durometer - Smooth Finish - No Backing - 0.25" Thick x 36" Width x 48" Length - Black

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. Sheet neoprene is favored in industrial applications for its intense temperature range and resistance. 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. Our hard neoprene is available in 10 different gauges to ensure the proper fit for any desired application. This 1/4” neoprene is one of the thicker options available and works best in high-stress physical applications. Different applications may also require varying levels of neoprene durometer. This rubber neoprene has a durometer of 70A to give it a very hard surface with minimal flexibility. The 70-durometer neoprene is stiff and works best in highly abrasive applications such as neoprene padding or bumpers. The black rubber sheeting can also be cut down and used to make neoprene rubber gaskets, liners, and seals. This versatile neoprene rubber is the perfect material for high-stress applications of any kind.
