Rubber sheets NBR/SBR nitrile rubber | NBR/SBR 50° +/- 7° Shore rubber sheets

Different types of adhesive can be used for bonding rubber. The choice of the right adhesive for rubber depends on the mixture of the respective rubber, therefore it is advisable to test it on a small area before gluing the rubber over the entire surface. In our online shop page https://www.vibraplast.ch/de/gummi-kunststofftechnik/Klebstoffe you will find a range of superglues for gluing rubber to each other or for bonding with different material combinations. The following elastomers/rubbers have proven to be suitable for bonding with superglue: EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene rubber) NR (natural rubber) CR (Cloroprene rubber neoprene) IIR (isobutylene-isoprene rubber) SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber) NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber) Rubber bondings with superglue have the advantage that it hardens in a few seconds and the adhesive bond can be loaded immediately. The following advice for bonding rubber should be observed: clean surface no double-sided adhesive application a glueing gap as thin as possible in the case of mitre-cut gluing or butt gluing, ensure a straight, smooth and fresh cut skin contact should be avoided if possible, wear latex gloves if possible

Hardness testing of elastomers (rubber) The hardness test of elastomers (rubber) which is most commonly used is the Shore hardness test according to DIN ISO 7619-1. The Shore hardness is the resistance of a rubber sample to the penetration of a conical body of certain dimensions under a defined compressive force. Depending on the design of the measuring body, a distinction is made between Shore A for softer elastomer compounds and Shore D for harder elastomer compounds. For a perfect measurement of Shore hardness, the standard specifies a sample thickness of 6.0 mm. If measurements are carried out on finished products with smaller wall thicknesses, they usually lead to incorrect results. Commercially available elastomer compounds for technical rubber mouldings have a hardness range of 20-90 Shore A
