Developed in the 1950s as a speciality rubber for rugged applications. Best described as a “super” Neoprene, with similar but better developed characteristics. Properties
resistant to oil and fluids, especially at higher temperatures (+125°C)
extremely resistant to ozone and weathering - can withstand harsh outdoor conditions for up to 15 years
Limitations
cannot be used where there is contact with fuels
limited low temperature performance (-25°C)
Typical Applications
situations where there is likely to be heavy weather conditions or exposure to hot liquids and/or gases
