Abra Rubber Sheets
Some work conditions demand more- extra durability and protection. Duratuf Abra or abrasion resistant rubber sheeting is designed for extreme physical wear, friction, and impact. These can 'bounce back' mechanical stress instead of absorbing it. Composed of high-grade natural rubber and SBR, Abra rubber sheets are another name for resilience.
What is Abra or Abrasion Rubber Sheet?
Abrasion rubber sheet is a specialized type of rubber sheet, designed to withstand extreme mechanical stress. Made of natural rubber, Duratuf rubber sheets come in hardness starting from 38° Shore A to 60° Shore A. In some cases, like sand blasting or shot blasting applications, machines get worn out fast.
Here, the Duratuf abrasion resistant rubber sheet protects and enhances the performance. These rubber sheets come in both top and bottom plain surfaces, which are easy to cut and fabricate as well.
- Gaskets, Seals, and O-rings
- Vibration- isolation pads
- Protective padding
- Shock absorption mats and more

Frequently Asked Questions: Abrasion Rubber Sheets
What materials are abrasion rubber sheets made from?
Abrasion rubber sheets are made of premium quality natural rubber with some compounds and fillers.
How is abrasion resistance measured in rubber sheets?
Abrasion resistance in rubber sheets is measured by pressing a sample against a rotating abrasive drum in a DIN tester. The resulting volume loss is calculated in cubic millimeters (mm³).
What thicknesses are available in abrasion rubber sheets?
The available thicknesses for Duratuf Abra rubber sheets are: 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm.
What is the difference between abrasion rubber sheets and general-purpose rubber sheets?
Abrasion resistant rubber sheets are specially meant for heavy-duty uses with up to 800% elongation, more than natural rubber sheets. While ordinary natural rubber sheets are good for standard industrial applications, Abra rubber sheets are better in sand, shot blasting, and abrasive conditions.
Can you share some maintenance tips to extend the life of abrasion resistant sheets?
Abrasion resistant rubber sheets stay durable for a long time when each abrasion resistant rubber roll is stored under optimum conditions, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, steam, UV rays, Ozone, etc. For more detailed info, you can directly contact our representatives.
Can abrasion rubber sheets be customized as per requirement?
Yes, Duratuf Abra rubber sheets can be customized as you require in terms of dimension, thickness, color, fabrication, etc. It is better to contact us before you proceed.
How do I choose the right abrasion rubber sheet for my application?
We have Abra rubber sheets in various thicknesses, like 38° Shore A, 40° Shore, and 60° Shore A. We understand that it can be confusing for you to choose among so many options. But now you can book a free video call with our product experts to know which one will fit your applications better.
What is the typical lifespan or durability of an abrasion rubber sheet?
The lifespan or durability of Abrasion rubber sheets depends more on their usage, storage conditions, and other conditions. But the typical abrasion resistance of rubber may last up to 2-3 years.
