Rubber Designers

Designers choose rubber because of its wide range of properties:

  • Rubber can be used over a temperature range of  -80°C to +300°C, so it can withstand extremes of weather and outdoor environments indefinitely.
  • Rubber can withstand exposure to fuels, oils and chemicals, whilst retaining its excellent properties.
  • Rubber can be made flame retardant and self extinguishing, with halogen free and smoke suppressant grades available.
  • Rubber can maintain tension and compression forces indefinitely for sealing applications.
  • Rubber is conformable, adaptable and can accommodate movement, shock, and thermal changes, operating with tight tolerances and in a variety of surface finishes.
  • Rubber can absorb vibration and noise and act as an insulator.
  • Rubber can be gas tight and used as a fluid seal or separator.
  • Rubber has low thermal conductivity and can be used to reduce heat transfer.
  • Rubber has friction properties similar to human skin and is comfortable to grip.
  • Rubber can have a clean, smooth surface which can be non-stick and suitable for hygienic applications.
  • Rubber is compatible with other engineering materials e.g. metal, plastics and ceramics and can be combined with them in many different ways, including bonding.
  • Rubber is available in a wide range of colours.
