✓ Why Neoprene is the Versatile Industrial Rubber
-
Excellent Weather & Ozone Resistance
Won't crack, harden, or degrade from sun, rain, or ozone exposure. Ideal for outdoor and marine applications. -
Oil, Grease & Seawater Resistant
Handles exposure to mineral oils, greases, and saltwater with ease. Perfect for marine and automotive use. -
Flame Retardant Properties
Self-extinguishing characteristics provide enhanced safety in high-heat or fire-sensitive areas. -
Wide Temperature Range: -40°C to +100°C
Maintains flexibility and performance across extreme temperature variations. -
Excellent Abrasion & Tear Resistance
Withstands mechanical stress, tearing, and wear for long-term durability in harsh environments. -
UV & Ozone Stable
Performs reliably outdoors with resistance to UV radiation and atmospheric ozone. -
10 Thickness Options: 1.5mm to 15mm
Complete range for any application – from thin gaskets to heavy-duty seals and pads.

Neoprene vs Other Rubber Materials
Neoprene vs Natural Rubber:
- ✓ Far superior weather and ozone resistance
- ✓ Better oil and chemical resistance
- ✓ Flame retardant (natural rubber is flammable)
- ✓ Better outdoor durability
Neoprene vs EPDM:
- ✓ Better oil and grease resistance
- ✓ Flame retardant properties
- ✓ Similar weather resistance
- ✗ EPDM slightly better for extreme weather (use neoprene for oil contact)
Neoprene vs Nitrile:
- ✓ Much better weather and ozone resistance
- ✓ Flame retardant (nitrile is not)
- ✗ Nitrile better for petroleum fuels (use neoprene for general oil/weather)
Easy Fabrication & Installation
Neoprene rubber is simple to work with using standard workshop tools:
- ✓ Cut with sharp knife or scissors
- ✓ Punch with standard dies
- ✓ Bond with neoprene-compatible adhesives
- ✓ No special equipment required
Can be die-cut for custom gaskets or used as sheet material for larger sealing and protection applications.
Chemical Compatibility
Excellent Resistance:
- ✓ Weather, ozone, and UV exposure
- ✓ Mineral oils and greases
- ✓ Seawater and saltwater
- ✓ Mild acids and alkalis
- ✓ Refrigerants (R12, R22)
- ✓ Alcohols and glycols
Not Recommended For:
- ✗ Continuous petroleum fuel immersion (use nitrile)
- ✗ Strong oxidizing acids
- ✗ Aromatic hydrocarbons
- ✗ Chlorinated solvents
Contact our technical team if you're unsure about chemical compatibility for your specific application.
Why Neoprene for Marine Applications?
Neoprene is the marine industry standard because it:
- ✓ Resists saltwater corrosion and degradation
- ✓ Maintains flexibility in cold seawater
- ✓ Won't rot or degrade from constant moisture
- ✓ Resists marine oils and fuels
- ✓ Withstands UV exposure on deck
- ✓ Provides excellent vibration dampening
