Neoprene Sheet - 60A - Smooth Finish - No Backing, 0.25" Thick x 24" Width x 36" Length - Black

Rubber-Cal’s Neoprene rubber is a tough synthetic rubber that is ideal for industrial applications. Sometimes referred to by its chemical name chloroprene, neoprene rubber is a versatile material developed by DuPont in the 1930s. The introduction of neoprene material met the increasing demand for a rubber sheeting that could resist chemicals and outdoor conditions. While other synthetic rubber types may degrade quickly under intense physical conditions, this sheet neoprene is designed to endure. Our neoprene sheets are actually a powerful synthetic rubber compound made up of styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) and chloroprene rubber (CR) to inherit the strengths of both rubber materials. This mix of synthetic elastomers gives the rubber neoprene a moderate resistance to oils, chemicals, and many damaging effects of weather. The sleek black neoprene has a smooth and solid consistency, adding a professional aesthetic to this highly resistant sheet rubber.
The key feature of this neoprene sheet is its wide range of resistance. Thanks to the unique neoprene rubber compound that makes it up, Rubber Cal’s industrial neoprene has moderate resistance to acetic acids, petroleum-based solvents, and certain oils and chemicals. This solid neoprene is designed to stand up to these substances that can easily degrade other synthetic rubbers. This rubber neoprene is also highly valued in outdoor applications, as it can withstand UV rays, ozone, and damaging weather effects without showing wear for a long time. Though other rubber materials may have stronger resistance to some of these conditions, no other material offers the diverse cumulation of resistance that this rubber neoprene does. Our resilient neoprene offers excellent all-around resistance, making it versatile enough for indoor and outdoor applications alike.
Sheet neoprene is also valued for its intense temperature range and resistance. This hard neoprene performs well in temperatures from -20° to 212° F, which makes it the ideal choice for most industrial applications. High temperatures and industrial machinery are no match for this tough neoprene sheeting, which is available in 10 different gauges to ensure the proper fit for any application. This 1/4-inch rubber sheet is one of the thicker options available and works best in high-stress physical applications. Different applications may also require varying levels of neoprene shore hardness. This 1/4" neoprene has a durometer of 60 shore A, giving it a hard surface and a moderate amount of flexibility. The 60-durometer neoprene is stiff yet pliable, and works best in highly abrasive applications such as neoprene padding or bumpers. The thick rubber sheets can also be cut down and used to make neoprene lining, seals, and gaskets. This versatile neoprene rubber is the perfect material for countless industrial, commercial, and even residential applications.
