    Types of Rubber Sheeting

    • Natural rubber sheets have superb mechanical qualities They're soft and supple with great resistance to abrasion, corrosion and tearing.
    • Ethylene Polypropylene (EPDM) rubber sheets combine very strong resistance to UV light, ozone and oxidants. Good performance against acids, weak alkalis and brake fluid.
    • Nitrile rubber sheets is a synthetic material that excels in applications where solvents, fuels oils and greases are a factor.
    • Silicone rubber sheets are among the most popular in pharmaceutical and medical environments, due to low permeability and high heat tolerance.
    • Polyethylene rubber sheets are high-density, closed-cell foam products for lightweight strength and buoyancy, Widely used in transport and logistics as protective materials
    • Neoprene rubber sheets Resistant to mineral oils, petroleum products and greases, acids/alkalis. Used in outdoor applications, with a strong performance against weathering, ageing and UV exposure cracking.
    • Fluorocarbon rubber sheets are resistant to mineral oils, fuels, non-polar solvents, including high aromatic and chlorinated types, and ours are chemical-grade at operating temperatures of -18C to +204C.

    Plastic Rods, Sheets and Tubes

    • Solid plastic sheets are available in a range of different plastics including Polycarbonate, PVC, Nylon and laminated plastics.
    • Perforated plastic sheets are available with a variety of hole diameters and patterns, considerably lighter and easier to install than metal sheet as well as being more resistant to corrosion.
    • Plastic rods are available in a range of plastics in different lengths, diameters and colours. Plastic rods are used for professional, domestic and hobbyist applications.
    • Round and square plastic tubing is offered in a choice of diameters, densities, hardness and tensile strength ratings, lamination materials, and maximum operating temperatures.
