General Purpose Rubber 70A - Smooth Finish - Adhesive Backed - 0.187" T x 36" W x 48" L - Black

Rubber-Cal’s General Purpose Rubber is a durable and cost-effective elastomer sheeting that can be used for a wide range of potential applications. This waterproof rubber sheet is made from a tough and reliable synthetic rubber material called styrene butadiene rubber (SBR). Each rubber sheet goes through a chemical heating process called vulcanization, increasing its durability and giving the synthetic rubber a smooth and solid finish. This high-density rubber sheet has a durometer of 70A, which means the material has a hard surface with minimal flexibility. The rubber material has excellent resistance to abrasions, making it perfect for heavy-duty applications whether they are industrial, commercial, or even residential.
SBR rubber, unlike other synthetic rubber compounds, is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the outdoors. This synthetic elastomer has superior resistance to abrasions, moisture, UV rays, and most damaging weather effects. With a working temperature range from -10° F to 190° F, this hard sheet rubber maintains excellent performance, even in extreme heat. This makes the sheets of rubber ideal for industrial applications, as the styrene rubber can handle the intense friction of heavy machinery without showing wear for a long time. Our General Purpose sheet rubber is specially designed to handle such extreme conditions without sacrificing its lifespan.
Some key advantages of synthetic rubber are its natural abilities to enhance traction, absorb shock, and reduce noise. The hard rubber sheets absorb any vibrations to reduce sound and impacts for a safe and solid elastomer surface. Such qualities make this thin rubber sheet an excellent material for protective bumpers and pads. This 3/16” rubber sheet is the center median of five available gauges that range from 1/16” to 3/8”. This gives the sheet rubber product a limitless possibility of applications—everything from seals and gaskets to soundproofing or insulation. These adhesive-backed rubber sheets are versatile and come with pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing for easy DIY installation in any desired application. Our General Purpose Rubber withstands even the toughest conditions, making it ideal for high-stress applications of any kind.
