Nitrile Rubber Gaskets are cut from rubber sheets or mould pressing. Any sizes and shapes can be produced. Whether you need one part, or one million parts, our gasket division can cut just about any size and shape that you can imagine, from just about any material.
Nitrile Rubber Gaskets
Nitrile rubber, as well known as Butadiene Acrilonitrile, Buna-N, Perbunan, or NBR rubber, was first developed in 1941 in a project meant to
find an oil resistant rubber. However, NBR’s oil resistance depends on the grade of acrylonitrile
The higher the grade of acrylonitrile the better is resistance to oil and fuel. However, as the grade of acrylonitrile increases, the endurance
to low temperatures decreases. NBR has good abrasion resistance nonetheless its physical properties are moderate in comparison with
the Natural Rubber.
Nitrile rubber gasket has outstanding resistance to: oils, petrols, solvents, and lubricants, but poor ozone resistance. Poor ozone resistance.
Good resistance to inorganic chemical products except antioxidant agents and chlorine, it has satisfactory resistance to general hydrocarbons
Advantages
• Good general resistance to solvents, lubricants
• Good general resistance to oils, petrols
• Good compression set, tear strength
• Wide range of sevice temperature
• Good resistance to alkalis acids
• Good tensile strength, flexibility
• Moderate aging properties
• Good adhesion to metal.
• Good use with water
• Has good recovery
