High Grade Natural Rubbers Natural Rubber is obtained from liquid Latex extracted from rubber trees. It has excellent mechanical properties including Tensile Strength, Elasticity, Abrasion and Tear Resistance. It is often used where Low Compression Set and High Resilience and Rebound properties are required. Natural Rubber has good resistance to acids, alkalis and salts but is not recommended for oil or hydrocarbon contact. Maximum continuous temperature 70 degrees C.

Mining Sheet Products Traditionally Trelleborg has been a name recognised in the mining industry for quality and extreme wear resistance. We are happy to say that this tradition continues with the extensive range of wear resistant sheet being now being stocked by Trelleborg in Australia. Until recently, however, the problem with using abrasion resistant rubbers was the required preparation of the sheets for bonding namely the need to buff rubber that by its nature was abrasion resistant. Trelleborg now offers a range of abrasion linings that include bonding layers for easy application with most standard contact adhesive systems available in today s market.

Trelleborg Queensland Rubber Sheet Rubber At Trelleborg s Brisbane factory we have the ability to produce quality sheet rubber to your specification. High grade Natural Rubber, Neoprene, Nitrile, Hypalon, Gum Sheet, EPDM, Butyl and Silicone sheet rubber can be produced to most Australian, British or International Standards. We also have the laboratory facilities to run basic mechanical testing and provide test reports and certificates of conformity. Current manufacturing capabilities in Brisbane are Smooth (Talc) finish Fabric finish both sides Maximum width 1150mm wide Thickness range 0.3mm 6.0 mm in roll form and up to 100mm thick in sheet form (tooling may be required) Most rubber types and hardness requirements Most basic colours available Cured or Uncured sheet The benefits of local production are the short lead times and the relatively low minimum order quantities. Please note however that all locally produced sheet is made to order and no local stock is held of these items. 8
Technical Information Properties of Rubber Compounds This table is provided as a general guide to the properties of compounds containing natural and synthetic rubbers. Most compounds used in the manufacture of sheet rubber contain about 60% by weight of rubber, the balance is made up of chemicals, each contributing something to the physical properties of the finished product, or as an aid in processing. The selection of these components is very much a matter of compromise since the full achievement of one property is usually at the expense of another. Common Name ASTM Designation Composition General Properties Natural NR Isoprene, natural Excellent physical properties including abrasion and low temperature resistance. Poor resistance to petroleum based fluids. Neoprene CR Chloroprene Good weather resistance. Flame retarding. Moderate resistance to petroleum based fluids. Good physical properties.
