Rubber Sheet

A rubber sheet is one of our largest export of rubber products from the Visayas to Mindanao, proving a great need for many sectors such as manufacturing, engineering, residential or industrial. The rubber sheet has many functions, such as eliminating vibrations & sounds, protecting the floorings, acting as a protective layer, and many more. It is considered a multi-purpose product, so we do not skimp on the high-grade compound materials we put on it to make it more durable and reliable in different applications.

What is an industrial rubber sheet?

An industrial rubber sheet is made from rubber designed for use in industrial settings. These sheets are often used for gaskets, seals, and other applications where a durable and high-quality material is needed. It is made from various materials, including natural rubber, synthetic rubber, or a combination of both, and comes in a wide variety of different thicknesses. They can also be custom-cut to fit your specific needs.

Different Uses of an industrial rubber sheet

• It can be used as a gasket or seal in many different industries. 
• It’s also used in the construction industry for roofing and waterproofing. They are also used in the automotive industry for floor mats, trunk liners, and door seals. 
• In the medical sector, rubber sheets are used to control germs or viruses. They are also used in many different types of surgery to cover surgical equipment and protect it from getting damaged.

Advantages of using an industrial rubber sheet over a metal sheet

• An industrial rubber sheet has many advantages over a metal sheet.
• It is much more durable and resistant to wear and tear, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.
• It is much easier to clean or maintain and does not rust or corrode as metal sheets can.
• Overall, an industrial rubber sheet is a much better choice for most industrial applications due to its superior properties.

Advantages of a rubber sheet over a silicone sheet

Rubber is a much more durable material than silicone. It can withstand high temperatures and harsh chemicals that would damage the silicone. Rubber also has a higher tensile strength than silicone, meaning it can resist being pulled or stretched without breaking.

Another advantage of rubber sheet is that it is easier to bond to other materials than silicone. This makes it ideal for applications that must be adhered to another surface, such as gaskets or seals. Rubber also has better abrasion resistance than silicone, so it will last longer if it needs to be repeatedly rubbed against another surface.

Overall, rubber sheet has many advantages over silicone sheet in terms of durability, strength, and ease of bonding. These properties make it the preferred material for many industrial and commercial applications.

Choosing the suitable rubber sheet for your needs

When finding the perfect rubber sheet for your needs, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, you need to know which application the rubber sheet will be used.

1. Will it be used as a gasket or seal? 
2. Will it be used for electrical insulation? 
3. Will it be used as padding or lining? 

Once you know the answer to this question, you can begin narrowing down your options.

If you need a rubber sheet for a gasket or seal, you’ll want to look for one made of Neoprene, EPDM, Nitrile, or Silicone. These materials are all excellent choices for applications where they will be exposed to water, oil, grease, or other chemicals.
