Rubber-Cal’s Buna-N nitrile is an industrial-strength elastomer sheeting that has excellent oil resistance Substances such as oil, grease, and gasoline can easily degrade most natural and synthetic rubbers, but nitrile (Buna-N) is designed to withstand Also known as nitrile butadiene rubber, NBR rubber was created to perform well in industrial, commercial, and automotive applications Most synthetic elastomers were developed in the early 20th century to meet the newly industrialized demands of war, and nitrile rubber is no exception Rubber NBR met an important need for the military by offering a sheet rubber material with resistance to both natural and synthetic oils and greases Unlike other types of synthetic rubber, nitrile rubber contains a high amount of the polymer acrylonitrile, which gives the material a long lifespan even when it is expose to oils, fuels, and grease It is this polymer and its added benefits that set rubber nitrile apart from other elastomers, and have made it a dependable industrial choice for more than 80 yearsThis sleek NBR sheet is extremely durable with a high tensile strength and good abrasion resistance Rubber-Cal’s nitrile sheets are actually synthetic rubber compound made up of nitrile, neoprene, and SBR to inherit the strengths of each rubber material This gives the NBR sheet good levels of all-around resistance to oils, chemicals, and abrasions This fuel resistant rubber has a durometer 60A, giving the rubber material a sturdy surface with moderate flexibility The firm yet pliable nature makes this NBR sheet great for a range of high-stress applications With a working temperature range from -20 to 180° F, this black NBR has increased resistance to temperature aging and can easily withstand the repeated heat and friction of industrial machinery These adhesive rubber sheets also come with pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing for easy DIY installation in any desired application This versatile NBR sheet is designed t
