Neoprene Rubber Gaskets
Neoprene rubber, commonly known as Chloroprene, is a solid rubber material with a good resistance to oils, chemicals, UV, ozone and weather conditions in general. With its excellent strength and abrasion properties, combined with a wide temperature range of between -35˚C and 120˚C (depending on the grade of rubber), Neoprene has the right characteristics to be used in a number of industrial applications, for example neoprene rubber gasket is good for making sealing gaskets to protect against the ingress of water and dust
Advantages
• Good option for dilute acids, alkalis and mineral oils
• Good resistance to the effects of ozone, oxidation
• Good mechanical and abrasion properties
• Good for Oil, diesel, gasoline, lubricants
• Good resistance sunlight aging .
• Good impermeability to gases
• Good for use with sea water
• Good adhesion to metal.
• Good recovery., etc
Application
• Working with dilute acids, alkalis and mineral oils
• Working in Oil, diesel, gasoline, lubricants
• A range of outerdoor applications
• Good materials for gaskets
• Industrial oil maintenance
• Petroleum oils
• Rubber strip.,etc
