Materials

Rubber is available in a variety of different compounds, all which have varying properties to provide an ideal solution for a given application.

Sponge rubber varieties exhibit a softer more compressible feel compared to standard rubber due to the various blowing agents used during the formation process.

Foam based materials are a low cost alternative to sponge rubber where insulation and support are needed without the need for rubber based compounds.

PRP has the ability to cut, mill and fabricate a wide variety of custom shapes and profiles utilising plastic sheet.

Cork is generally used for gaskets and sealing applications whereby the user needs the tensile strength and properties associated with solid based rubber, but also the compressibility of softer based cork.

PRP for years has been at the forefront of providing a complete set of sealing solutions for gasketing industries such as oil and gas, and water and sewage. As well as its expertise in rubber solutions, PRP also stocks a wider range of gasket materials such as compressed non asbestos fibre, graphite, PTFE (Teflon) sheet and metallic wound ranges.
