Closed Cell Neoprene/PVC/Nitrile Sponge Rubber

Closed cell Neoprene/PVC/Nitrile sponge rubber is an economical sealing and gasket material for applications requiring a good resistance to chemicals and conformance with UL 94 flammability ratings. This material blend exhibits the best properties from each individual elastomer and performs well in temperatures ranging from -40° F to +200° F. Atlantic Gasket Corporation is a Philadelphia-based gasket manufacturer that serves customers in a wide variety of industries around the corner and across the world. Closed cell Neoprene/PVC/Nitrile rubber is one of many materials available at Atlantic Gasket for custom and die-cut seals and gaskets used in a diverse range of industrial and commercial applications. Below are some sample gasket and sealing applications in which this material is suitable.

Example Gasket Application Properties
Automotive Applications The combination of these elastomer materials creates a blend that performs well in automotive applications, specifically as tail lamp gaskets or seals.
Electrical Applications The properties of Neoprene/PVC/Nitrile make this sponge rubber gasket and sealing material ideal for electrical enclosures and other electrical sealing applications that require a UL 94 rated gasket material.
HVAC Applications Neoprene/PVC/Nitrile rubber blend works well as a gasket tape or gap seal on duct work for HVAC units and creates an air tight seal in metal-to-metal bonding applications.
Weatherproofing Applications With its closed cell structure, Neoprene/PVC/Nitrile is a suitable weatherproofing gasket and seal material for electrical enclosures exposed to outdoor elements.
