Key Benefits of Neoprene Sheet
Neoprene is the all-rounder among industrial rubbers:
- Balanced Resistance: moderate resistance to oils and greases plus good weathering
- Flame Behaviour: better flame resistance than natural rubber or EPDM
- Toughness: good tear and abrasion resistance
- Vibration Damping: suits pads and mounts
- Versatility: sealing, padding and lining in one material
Applications
- Flange and equipment gaskets for water, air and mild oils
- Anti-vibration and bearing pads
- Door and hatch seals in marine and industrial settings
- Electrical and HVAC enclosure gaskets
- Protective linings and wear pads
- Expansion joint and glazing gaskets
Neoprene vs NBR vs EPDM
- NBR is better for continuous oil and fuel contact.
- EPDM is better for weather, water and steam but not oils.
- Neoprene sits in between and is chosen where both moderate oil exposure and weather resistance matter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Is neoprene oil resistant?
A. Neoprene has moderate oil resistance. For continuous oil and fuel contact, NBR is the better choice.
Q2. What is neoprene rubber sheet used for?
A. Gaskets, anti-vibration pads, door seals and protective linings where weather and moderate oil resistance are needed.
Q3. What thickness is available?
A. Neoprene sheet is typically available from about 1 mm to 50 mm. Contact us to confirm stock.
Q4. Can you supply neoprene gaskets cut to size?
A. Yes. Send dimensions or a drawing for a quotation.
