Types of Rubber Sheet We Supply
EPDM Rubber Sheet
EPDM rubber sheet offers excellent resistance to weathering, ozone, UV exposure, and temperature extremes (-40°C to +120°C). Ideal for outdoor applications, roofing membranes, pond liners, and automotive seals. Available in 1mm to 25mm thickness.
Neoprene Rubber Sheet
Neoprene rubber sheet provides outstanding oil resistance combined with good weathering properties. Perfect for gaskets, seals, and industrial applications requiring chemical resistance. Temperature range -30°C to +100°C.
Nitrile Rubber Sheet (NBR)
Nitrile rubber sheet is the industry standard for oil and fuel resistance. Essential for automotive, aerospace, and hydraulic applications. Our nitrile sheets resist petroleum-based oils, fuels, and hydraulic fluids. Available 1.5mm to 20mm.
Natural Rubber Sheet
Natural rubber sheet offers superior elasticity, tensile strength, and abrasion resistance. The traditional choice for high-performance engineering applications where flexibility and tear resistance are critical.
SBR Rubber Sheet
SBR rubber sheet (Styrene-Butadiene Rubber) provides excellent abrasion resistance at an economical price point. Ideal for general-purpose applications including flooring, matting, and anti-vibration pads.
Rubber Sheet Applications
Gaskets & Seals: Custom-cut gaskets for flanges, pumps, and machinery
Flooring & Matting: Industrial floor covering and protective surfaces
Engineering Components: Washers, bumpers, and vibration dampening
Acoustic Insulation: Sound deadening and vibration isolation
Roofing & Waterproofing: EPDM membranes and pond liners
Electrical Insulation: Switchboard matting and insulating covers

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of rubber sheet is best for oil resistance?
Nitrile (NBR) rubber sheet offers the best resistance to petroleum-based oils, fuels, and hydraulic fluids. For applications involving both oil and outdoor weathering, Neoprene provides a good balance. Never use natural rubber or EPDM for oil-contact applications.
Can you cut rubber sheet to custom sizes?
Yes, we offer a custom cutting service for all rubber sheet materials. We can cut to your exact dimensions or provide templates for gaskets and components. Contact us with your requirements for a quote on custom cutting.
What thickness of rubber sheet do I need for gaskets?
For most gasket applications, 1.5mm to 6mm thickness is standard. The optimal thickness depends on flange surface finish, bolt pressure, and sealing requirements. Rougher flange surfaces typically require thicker gasket material (3-6mm) while machined surfaces work well with thinner sheets (1.5-3mm).
Is EPDM rubber sheet suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, EPDM is the best rubber for outdoor applications. It offers excellent resistance to UV radiation, ozone, weathering, and temperature extremes. EPDM is the standard material for roofing membranes, pond liners, and outdoor seals with a 25+ year lifespan in exposed conditions.
What's the difference between rubber sheet and rubber matting?
Rubber sheet typically refers to flat, smooth engineering rubber used for gaskets, seals, and components. Rubber matting usually has a textured surface (ribbed, studded, etc.) designed for flooring applications. Sheets are specified by material grade; matting by durability and slip resistance.
