Natural Rubber Sheet
Natural Rubber Sheet
Here at Advanced Seals & Gaskets Ltd, we stock a wide variety of materials including solid natural rubber. Solid Natural Rubber is made using naturally occurring latex and is used in a variety of applications due to its tensile strength, tear resistance, and shock absorption capabilities. Our solid natural rubber sheets are usually supplied in 2meter x 1meter or 1meter x 1meter sheets but other sizes can be cut on request, in addition, our sheets can be supplied plain or with self-adhesive backings and a range of sizes and thicknesses.
Whether we manufacture as a one-off or in large quantities, we work closely with our customers throughout the manufacturing process to provide a completely bespoke service. Utilizing state-of-the-art machinery and a highly skilled workforce, we ensure we produce high quality products meeting a range of specifications.
Solid Natural Rubber is available from us in many other forms including:

What is Solid Natural Rubber?
Natural rubber is the result of solids suspended in a milky fluid, known as latex, formed in a living organism. It is a strong, durable and waterproof material, available from us as standard in rolls 1.4 metres wide x 10 metres long with thickness starting at 0.5mm.
Solid natural rubber is manufactured using naturally occurring latex from the rubber tree and is available in various shore strengths. Due to its high tensile strength and good abrasion resistance, solid natural rubber is ideal to produce parts where a strong robust material resistance is required including wear strips, gaskets and chute liners.
Why use Solid Natural Rubber Sheets?
Our customers often use solid natural rubber sheets to create their own products that close gaps and irregularities between two surfaces. Other uses include preventing unwanted noise and vibrations, and creating seals against air, gas, dust and liquids.
Solid natural rubber has many advantages including its strength, durability and water and heat resistant properties. Common uses of solid natural rubber include conveyor belting, outdoor sealing applications such as window and door seals, and components within the automotive industry such as pumps, hydraulics and flanges.
Different Grades of Solid Natural Rubber Sheets
- BS1154 Natural rubber sheets - This high-grade natural rubber has high tensile strength and is-non-abrasive. This material is available in black or white, enabling it to be used within the food and beverage production and packaging industries
- Tan Shot Blast rubber sheets- A superior, long-lasting material with a high abrasion resistance, this material is ideal for very heavy-duty applications such as scraper blades and chute linings.
- Abrasion Resistant Natural Rubber sheets - This high-quality natural rubber is specifically formulated and manufactured to resist abrasion and wear, it has high elasticity and is an effective seal under low compression settings. Available in black, red or white.
