The 10 most popular types of rubber materials will be compared in this section:
- Natural Rubber (NR)
- Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR)
- Nitrile Rubber (NBR, Buna-N)
- Chloroprene (CR)
- Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM)
- Hydrogenated Nitrile Rubber (HNBR)
- Polyacrylic Rubber (ACM)
- Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene (CSM)
- Silicone (VMQ)
- Fluoro-Elastomer (FKM)
Consult our Material Selection Guide, which is provided below, for further details on the characteristics of the rubber materials described above that Fitco Orings carries as well as a number of other common rubbers.
Basic characteristics of the rubber material family are shown in this well-known comparison. With typical material mechanical qualities, the guide offers both generic approved Rubber Material usage and non-recommended uses. The general performance qualities of rubber materials can be dramatically changed by particular compound formulations.
To ensure the best performance of the rubber material, other factors, such as mechanical properties like hardness, tensile strength, elongation at break, compression set, stress relaxation, etc., can be considered once the elastomeric material has been selected.
