Nitrile Rubber Sheets, also known as NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) sheets, are synthetic rubber products made from a copolymer of acrylonitrile and butadiene. They are highly valued in industrial and commercial applications due to their excellent resistance to oils, fuels, and other chemicals.

  1. Oil & Fuel Resistance: Exceptional resistance to petroleum-based oils, diesel, and other hydrocarbons.

  2. Temperature Range: Typically functions between -20°C to +100°C, and some grades can handle even higher.

  3. Good Mechanical Strength: Durable and resistant to wear, compression, and tearing.

  4. Chemical Resistance: Withstands many industrial chemicals, making it ideal for harsh environments.

  5. Moderate Weather Resistance: Performs well indoors, but prolonged UV or ozone exposure may degrade it without additives.

🏭 Common Applications:

  • Automotive Industry: Oil-resistant gaskets, seals, and hoses

  • Industrial Equipment: Pads, washers, and lining for machinery

  • Oil & Gas Sector: Gaskets for fuel tanks, pipelines, and valves

  • Food Processing: FDA-grade nitrile rubber is used in food-safe environments

  • Glove Manufacturing: Base material for nitrile gloves (in sheet or latex form)

📐 Available Forms:

  • Sheets or rolls in various thicknesses (e.g., 1 mm to 50 mm)

  • With or without reinforcement layers (fabric-inserted for added strength)

  • Different grades: commercial, oil-resistant, and food-grade

Why Choose Nitrile Rubber Sheets?

If your application involves oil, fuel, or chemical contact, nitrile rubber sheets are often the first choice due to their resilience and durability.
