Description
Solid SBR Rubber Strip — 1mm Thick
A precision-cut, commercial-grade solid rubber strip manufactured from a NR/SBR (Natural Rubber / Styrene Butadiene Rubber) blend. At just 1mm thick, this strip delivers a reliable, low-profile seal and protective layer across a wide range of industrial, engineering, and general-purpose applications. Available in twelve widths from 10mm to 150mm, each supplied in a 5-metre length, it is equally suited to high-volume trade use and precise DIY projects. Tough, flexible, and waterproof — it cuts cleanly with scissors or a craft knife and bonds securely to most hard surfaces with a standard contact adhesive.

Frequently Asked Questions
What widths are available for the 1mm thick strip?
The strip is available in twelve widths: 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 35mm, 40mm, 50mm, 75mm, 100mm, and 150mm. All are supplied in a 5-metre length.
What is the hardness and how does it affect performance?
Hardness is 65° Shore A (−4/+5 tolerance). This gives a firm yet flexible strip — stiff enough to hold a seal under compression, yet pliable enough to conform to uneven surfaces.
What temperature range can this strip handle?
It performs reliably from −30°C to +70°C, making it suitable for most indoor industrial environments and sheltered external applications.
Can it be used outdoors or in contact with oils and fuels?
This material is not recommended for prolonged UV exposure, petrol, oils, or solvents. For outdoor or fuel-contact applications, a neoprene or EPDM grade would be more appropriate.
How do I cut and fix the strip in place?
It cuts cleanly with scissors or a craft knife. It can be bonded to most hard surfaces using a general-purpose contact adhesive for a secure, long-lasting fix.
Is this strip suitable for food contact applications?
No. This commercial-grade NR/SBR material is not approved for direct food contact use.
