Contact SupplierAs a multi-purpose rubber sheet, Nitrile Rubber Sheets (or NBR) provide high resistance and widely recommended when dealing with petroleum products.
Features:
Like other rubber sheets, Nitrile Rubber Sheets too are extremely versatile and feature-rich. Usually a blended black rubber sheet, they also come in a white tone. They have very good resistance to natural grease and synthetic products and hence recommended for use in areas that deploy petroleum products. Often such sheeting is specially formulated to prevent an oil attack. This is primarily because its mechanical properties remain intact even when they come in direct contact with oils and grease.
Besides withstanding petroleum products, Nitrile Rubber Sheeting is also specifically created to withstand contact with other industrial oils, hydrocarbons and extremely high temperatures. However, it is suitable for use with alcohols, mineral oils, hydraulic fluids, animal and vegetable fats. In addition, being a polar rubber, it is not recommended for use with polar liquids like ketones, ethers and amines.
Nitrile Rubber Sheet is available in a variety of sizes ranging from 1 Mtr x 2 Mtr to as large as the Client may demand. Its thickness is in the range of 2mm to 50mm and has a fabric impression on one side.
Application:
Given its robustness, Nitrile Rubber Sheets are used as sealing agents, in pads and gasket applications. This is mainly where either organic or industrial oils are found to be. It is because of its excellent abrasion resistant qualities that it is widely used in industrial oil and gas production facilities, commercial food processing plants, and automotive related applications. Other applications include manufacturing of seals, to mark food grades and in various processes of the health industry.
In industrial environments grease is a painstaking issue. Under such environments, Nitrile Rubber Sheet becomes the best suited option. This is so because it produces coatings and seals for points that need to withstand peak temperatures. This ensures durability even when conditions are very harsh. Therefore, it is also an excellent gasketing material, and it is used extensively in o-rings and washers. However, it is not recommended for applications that will expose it to either sunlight or rough weather.
