Nitrile Rubber Strip 4.5mm Thick x 25mm Wide, Black (Per Metre)

• Precision slit in-house from our Premium Grade Nitrile Rubber Sheet.
• Excellent compatibility with fuels (petrol & diesel), LPG, greases and oils.
• Versatile rubber strip with good endurance and physical strength.

Maximum continuous roll length is 10 metres. For orders over 10 metres, we will supply in multiple rolls. For orders under 10 metres, the strip will be supplied in one single, continuous length. For custom widths or special requirements, please do contact us.

Nitrile Rubber Strips are widely used for sealing, insulating and lining applications. They are often selected for their high compatibility with fuels, oils and greases. Nitrile Rubber is highly compatible with these fluids (and many more) and is a popular choice for sealing tanks, engine parts, pipelines and containers.

Our black Nitrile Rubber is a premium-grade material with a shore hardness of about 65 Shore A (+/- 5). Oftentimes referred to as NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber), our Nitrile can withstand temperatures between -25°C and +90°C.

This high-quality rubber sheet is then slit to width using our cutting facilities to product these Nitrile Strips. The following sections provide a little more information on the rubber, as well as a quick guide to buying Nitrile strips online.

Performance Attributes of Nitrile Rubber.

Nitrile Rubber has what we classify as medium temperature resistance. It can withstand continuous exposure to temperatures between -25°C and +90°C.

Black Nitrile Rubber has a smooth surface finish and is quite good at withstanding abrasion (275mm² max. @ 5N). This rubber does not have any reinforcement running through the middle of it but does posses good physical strength. It has a maximum elongation of 400% and a tear strength rating of 40 N / mm.

Fluid and Chemical Resistance of Nitrile.

One of the main reasons that Nitrile is selected is its excellent fuel and oil resistance. It is not broken down by these fluids and is highly suited for sealing them long term.

In addition to the compatibility with petrol, diesel, mineral oils and greases; Nitrile is also compatible with many more fluids. These include a range of diverse chemicals like Aqueous Ammonium Nitrate, Methyl Ether and Vegetable Oils. For a full list, please refer to our Rubber Chemical Compatibility Guide. Nitrile is listed under “NBR” in the tables.
