Shotblast Rubber Sheet
Solid Shotblast rubber sheets are one of thousands of products stocked and supplied by ASG, with other material types readily available in sponge of solid grades, some of which are designed for specialist or harsh environments and applications. Solid shotblast rubber is specially formulated to offer a high tear strength and excellent abrasion resistance, sometimes referred to as Tan Para Rubber which is manufactured in roll form with thicknesses starting at 1mm in varying lengths, which ASG can cut down and supply as sheets. Sheets of Shotblast rubber can be supplied in full or can be converted into other products such as washers, strips, pads or gaskets using in-house cutting and conversion facilities, allowing us to manufacture bespoke items to match our customers samples or drawings in small or large quantities using one of our many slitters, log cutters, presses, bandsaws or CNC (oscillating knife) machines.

What are Solid Shotblast Rubber Sheets?
Rolls of Solid shotblast rubber or para rubber are produced using natural latex, creating a ‘tan’ coloured soft rubber material - sometimes described as having a similar texture and appearance to material used to manufacture elastic bands. Rolls are manufactured in various lengths which depend upon the thickness of the material, but can be cut down into sheets that are one meter or two meters in length. These sheets of material have been formulated to have outstanding abrasion and tear resistance, therefore making a very robust and resilient material ideal for use in a range of sealing and abrasive applications.
Why use Solid Shotblast Rubber Sheets?
Solid shotblast rubber is an extremely strong and durable material, offering a high tensile strength, excellent resistance to abrasion and tear and a good resistance to weak chemicals, dilute acids and alkalis. It is manufactured in a shore hardness of 45°, has a working temperature of - 40°C to +85°C and is pre-manufactured in a wide range of standard thicknesses. Tan Para or Shotblast rubber is often taken in sheet form allowing customers to cover very large surfaces and giving customers the flexibility to cut their own products as and when required or for where larger surface coverage is required.
Benefits of Using Shotblast Rubber
- Can withstand harsh or abrasive media
- Working Temperature Range: -25°C to +70°C.
- Excellent resistance to abrasion.
- Good strength and durability.
- High elasticity
- Excellent tear strength
Different Types of Shotblast Rubber Available
Black shotblast rubber - manufactured from a black abrasion resistant grade natural rubber. This material, like the Tan variety, is extremely durable with an excellent tear resistance and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C for use within the most demanding construction applications.
Advantages of Using Solid Shotblast Rubber Sheets
Shotblast (Tan Para) rubber or components cut from these sheets of material bring many advantages to users. It is a highly abrasive resistant natural rubber - even when used with harsh media, that is available in tan or black colour options (with the tan being more readily available) and has a hardness of around 45° to 50° shore depending on the colour taken. Shotblast rubber pre-manufactured in a range of thicknesses allowing for quicker lead times for sheets as the splitting process used with sponge and foam conversion is eliminated. Shotblast rubber sheets have a very high abrasion resistance and elasticity, designed for applications including shot-blast cabinet seals, wear or impact pads, chute liners, scraper blades, etc.
