SBR vs Other Rubber Types - Comparison Guide
SBR vs EPDM Rubber: SBR is more economical and offers excellent general-purpose performance. For superior weather resistance and outdoor applications, choose EPDM. SBR excels in indoor industrial environments.
SBR vs Nitrile Rubber: For oil, fuel, and petroleum resistance, choose nitrile rubber sheets. SBR is better for general sealing and anti-vibration where oil contact is minimal.
SBR vs Neoprene: Neoprene offers better chemical and oil resistance. SBR provides better value for general-purpose applications without chemical exposure.
SBR vs Natural Rubber: SBR offers superior abrasion resistance and aging properties compared to natural rubber, making it ideal for long-term industrial use.
Temperature Performance Guide
Our SBR rubber sheet maintains performance across a practical temperature range:
- Cold Performance: Remains flexible down to -30°C - suitable for cold storage, refrigeration seals, and outdoor winter applications
- Heat Performance: Stable up to +80°C - ideal for moderate heat applications, warm water systems, and general industrial environments
- General Purpose Temperature Range: The -30°C to +80°C range covers most commercial and industrial applications

Frequently Asked Questions
What is SBR rubber and what is it used for?
SBR (Styrene Butadiene Rubber) is a synthetic rubber combining styrene and butadiene. It's the most widely used general-purpose rubber, ideal for gaskets, seals, anti-vibration matting, protective pads, and industrial applications where oil resistance isn't required.
What thickness SBR rubber for anti-vibration matting?
For anti-vibration applications, 6mm thickness is ideal for moderate vibration dampening (home gyms, light machinery). For heavy machinery or maximum isolation, use 10mm thickness.
Is SBR rubber oil resistant?
SBR has limited oil resistance and is not recommended for petroleum oils, fuels, or hydrocarbon exposure. For oil-resistant applications, use nitrile rubber instead. SBR excels in water-based and general industrial environments.
How do I cut SBR rubber sheet?
Use a sharp utility knife with a fresh blade and metal straight edge. For thicknesses up to 6mm, score multiple times and bend to snap. For 10mm+, score from both sides for clean cuts. A band saw works well for precision cuts on thicker sheets.
What is 68 Shore A hardness?
Shore A measures rubber hardness. 68 Shore A is medium-firm - firmer than EPDM (60 Shore A) but still flexible. This hardness provides excellent wear resistance while maintaining enough flexibility for effective sealing and gasket applications.
Can SBR rubber be used outdoors?
SBR can be used outdoors for moderate periods, but it has lower UV and ozone resistance than EPDM. For long-term outdoor exposure (roofing, weatherproofing), choose EPDM rubber instead. SBR is best for indoor or sheltered applications.
Is SBR rubber suitable for home gym flooring?
Yes! SBR rubber sheet is excellent for home gym flooring. The 6mm thickness provides good cushioning and anti-slip properties. It's durable, easy to clean, and more economical than specialized gym flooring. Many customers use it successfully for workout spaces.
What's the difference between SBR and natural rubber?
SBR offers superior abrasion resistance, better aging properties, and more consistent quality than natural rubber. It's also more economical and performs better in high-traffic applications. Natural rubber has better elasticity but degrades faster.
