Neoprene Rubber
General Purpose, less expensive (Chloroprene, CR)
More than 80% of rubber we sell is Neoprene. It is a workhorse rubber. Neoprene can be used in a majority of applications. Neoprene rubber is a very good, versatile and popular general-use blend of synthetic rubber. Neoprene rubber is good at resisting outdoor Ozone, UV light, and weather effects. Neoprene rubber has good chemical resistance, and can handle petroleum, oil or gas applications.
Hard Neoprene is commonly used in sound studios, gasketing, and industrial padding. In particular, it has moderate levels of chemical resistance, good protection against UV rays, and Ozone resistance (which vary depending on the blend); meaning it could withstand the weathering of the outdoors. Due to their good insulating properties, neoprene rubber sheets are known for their fire-resistant benefits. Besides resistant to petroleum products Neoprene Rubber Sheets are used where temperature, oil and flame resistance are required. This Rubber Sheet is waterproof and available in different lengths as per the requirements of the buyer. Neoprene Rubber Sheet is designed to be used as resistant to ageing, acid, heat, alkalis & cold mineral oils. They are highly suitable for use in oil, gas, chemical and dye industries. Many grades of neoprene are available depending on the application. Cloth inserted neoprene, anti-static ESD neoprene and even FDA approved neoprene is readily available.
