Typical Properties of 60 Durometer Commercial Grade Neoprene

Description: 60 durometer commercial grade neoprene gasket material designed for use in a wide variety of applications which require a general purpose solid rubber elastomer. 60 durometer commercial grade neoprene is made from Neoprene (13%) and a blend of other elastomers and has a service temperature of -30°F to +200°F. Known by the chemical name chloroprene, 60 durometer commercial grade neoprene also provides good weathering and ozone resistance for your gasketing applications.

M&P Sealing’s commercial grade neoprene is available in a wide range of durometers, ranging from as soft as 40 Durometer to as hard as 80 Durometer with standard durometers in between. 60 durometer commercial grade neoprene is available in the color black and can be manufactured in a wide range of standard thicknesses, ranging from as thin a 1/32″ to as thick as 1/2″, with custom thicknesses available upon request. 60 durometer commercial grade neoprene has a smooth finish and can be converted into rolls ranging from as narrow as 1/4 wide up to 48″ in width. Additional widths are available upon request. M&P Sealing has the ability to fabricate 60 durometer commercial grade neoprene by die-cutting or waterjet cutting to meet your prototype and production requirements.
