You are looking at Solid Neoprene Rubber sheet. Size approximately 300mm (11 3/4") x 200mm (8"). (Please note the picture shows two sheets as multiple quantities are available)

This is a high quality compound with a guaranteed active polymer content of between 20 - 30% - This means it wil last longer than "Economy" grades.

Chloroprene Rubber (CR), widely known as Neoprene, was one of the original oil resistant synthetic rubbers. However, it has only moderate resistance to petroleum based oils and fuels.

Neoprene is a very versatile polymer and has a number of uses from sealing gaskets to weather strip. It can be considered as a good general purpose rubber with an excellent balance of physical and chemical properties.

It has better chemical, oil, ozone and heat resistance than natural rubber.
