General FAQs

We offer a wide range of rubber materials, including Neoprene, EPDM, Nitrile, Silicone, Viton, SBR, Gum Rubber, and more --available in sheet, roll, strip, and gasket form.

Neoprene: General-purpose rubber with good oil resistance.
EPDM: Best for outdoor, UV, ozone, and water resistance.
Nitrile (buna-N): Excellent oil & fuel resistance.

Durometer measures rubber hardness. Lower numbers (e.g. 40A) are softer and more flexible, while higher numbers (e.g, 70-90A) are harder and more rigid. 

Elongation refers to how much a rubber material can stretch before breaking, expressed as a percentage of it's original length. For example, a sheet with 400% elongation can stretch to four times it's original length before it tears. Higher elongation means the material is more flexible and stretchable — ideal for applications that require movement, vibration absorption, or sealing uneven surfaces.
