SHEET RUBBER

NEOPRENE RUBBER
A general purpose compound with low temperature flexibility and oil resistance. Resists rotting, checking, and cracking due to weather exposure. Commonly used for gaskets, sealing, skirting, cushioning, or stripping rubber material. Great for rubber washers and bushings.

SLAB NEOPRENE RUBBER
High-grade commercial neoprene offered in heavy gauges. These high-quality slabs lay flat, rather than bent or rolled, to make cutting easier. Used for machinery mounting pads, wear strips, shock pads and where medium oil and ozone resistance is required.

RED RUBBER
An economical red SBR (Styrene Butadiene) sheet for use in low pressure applications with no oil resistant requirements. Red rubber remains the industry’s general service gasket material for common applications such as water.

GUM RUBBER
Excellent physical properties such as superior resilience, tensile, elongation, and abrasion resistance. Tan floating stock is produced entirely with FDA approved ingredients. It has good tear strength and is resistant to water, most salts, mild acids and other chemicals. Not suited for environments involving ozone, strong acids, animal fats, oils, greases and most hydrocarbons. Non-marking and safe to use for repeated food exposure.

EPDM RUBBER
For use in applications requiring higher temperature ranges, ozone, chemical and weather resistance.

CLOTH INSERTED RUBBER
Where applications call for maximum conformity and deformation resistance, RAGCO offers reinforced sheet rubber in several popular combinations of fabric and compounds. Fabric reinforced rubber presents good dimensional stability under high compression loads. Custom compounding and fabrication of reinforced sheet products can be specified to match unique application requirements.

NITRILE RUBBER
For use in applications requiring a rubber sheet or gasket with high resistance to petroleum based fluids.

WHITE FDA NITRILE RUBBER
A sheet specially formulated for its whiteness, used in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic processing. Made from FDAapproved ingredients per 21CFR 177.2600, it is non-marking, non-allergenic, and safe to use for repeated food exposure. It has good oil and abrasion resistance and handles oily and greasy food products well.

VITON® RUBBER
A premium grade fluoro-elastomer sheet for the most demanding applications. Excellent heat and chemical resistance, but not suitable for flex fuels containing high levels of alcohol or MTBE.

SILICONE RUBBER
Silicone sheet is designed to be used in applications where extreme high and low temperature resistance is needed. This material also provides excellent UV and ozone resistance, is non-toxic, chemically inert and fungus resistant.

HYPALON® RUBBER
With resistance to most chemicals, temperature extremes, ultraviolet light, and oil, Hypalon® chlorosulfonated polyethylene is used in a wide range of industrial and automotive applications where high performance is critical.

BUTYL RUBBER
Butyl rubber has exceptionally low gas and moisture permeability and outstanding resistance to heat aging, weather, ozone, chemical attack, flexing, abrasion and tearing. It is resistant to phosphate ester based hydraulic fluids, and has excellent electrical insulation performance. Butyl is not recommended for use when in contact with petroleum oils and fluids.

SPONGE RUBBER
Available plain or with PSA backing close cell sponge rubber is an economical seal with excellent compression. This material can be used to absorb shocks, cushion, deaden sound and seal against, air, moisture and light and dust penetration. The blend of Neoprene and EPDM makes this material moderately resistant to oil and ozone. Meets a variety of industry speficiations. Preslit weather stripping also available.

CORK RUBBER
Cork Rubber material is a mixture of first grade granulated cork and a synthetic rubber polymer. This gives the product the high resilience of rubber and the compressibility of cork. It is manufactured by conjoining the cork, glycerin-glue, and a rubber binder under heat and pressure.

AASHTO BEARING PAD
Neoprene Bearing Pads provide a uniform transfer of load from beam to substructure. They permit beam rotation at the bearing point due to deflection or misalignment. They absorb vibration and prevent sound transfer, while reducing the destructive action of vibration between movable and stationary structural members. They also provide for movement caused by normal expansion and contraction. Neoprene Bearing Pads are used extensively in bridge structures and pre-stressed and precast concrete buildings. Also used in industrial machinery and heavy equipment applications.

SKIRTBOARD RUBBER
Abrasion resistant, flexible, and excellent for use as conveyor skirting, chute lining, snow plow blades, and more.
