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. The higher the proportion of natural rubber used in the compound, the higher the quality and mechanical strength of the product.
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. 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.
Why use Solid Natural Rubber Strips?
A solid natural rubber strip is a length of material cut to a specific requirement. They are ideal for use in demanding environments and often utilized by our customers in applications that require tight, leak-proof seals that remain unaffected by impact.
Due to its resistances and high tensile strength, common uses 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 Strips
- BS1154 Natural rubber strip - 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 strip - 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 strip - 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.
