Rubber pads are thin flat mass of padding used in various applications for various purposes. Be it a mouse pad or stamp pad or soft landing pad or a foam pad, rubber is a very important material to make pads. Some pads come with crumb rubber. Such pads have hollow underneath for softness. The crumb rubber goes under the rubber pad to give the pad support and at the same time increase the shock absorption of the pad. The small-sized pads are use in light-duty applications while the big-sized rubber pads are used in various heavy-duty applications. There are soft landing pad which can be used to prevent muddy areas under swings and slides in playgrounds. The typical soft landing rubber pad is chosen by someone who wants to eliminate compacted ground and muddy areas commonly found under swings and slides. These pads are available in various sizes. These pads are resistant to most oils, water, steam and chemicals.

You name it &#; and the durable, weather-resistant, chemical traits of rubber neoprene pads can do it. Within the industry, our neoprene rubber pads are recognized as the Jack of All Trades &#; offering a quick and price-sensitive solution for protecting parts and much more.
When you partner with Frank Lowe, you'll have access to a vast range of neoprene pads. You can have your neoprene pads designed and manufactured for virtually any application.
Let's take a closer look at neoprene rubber pads, some of the most common applications, as well as the attributes that make it one of the most flexible, price-efficient elastomers available.
Neoprene pads and neoprene material is uniquely engineered for versatility and can be found on an expansive list of applications, including:
In addition, these pads can be found across an array of applications and items where vibration resistance or similar performance is needed or required.
As previously mentioned, our rubber neoprene pad is used in a vast array of applications, especially under mechanical equipment and industrial machinery. When they are used in this capacity, they're regularly exposed to grease and oil.
However, many elastomers like natural rubber and styrene-butadiene will have a negative reaction whenever it's exposed to oils. When you compare neoprene rubber pads with other elastomers, neoprene pads offer the exceptional characteristic of being resistant to grease and oil.
In addition, our neoprene pads are designed to be more price efficient in comparison to nitrile. While both offer excellent oil and grease resistant qualities, the lower price and cost savings of rubber neoprene pads make the material the preferred choice, especially for applications where grease and oil exposure isn't the most significant issue.
No matter your manufacturing needs, the price will always enter the equation. As a result, this is another very attractive attribute of neoprene pads. In fact, price was one of the driving factors for the creation of this material.
After an increased demand for natural rubber across the country back in the s, the price of this elastomer skyrocketed. This change in price and demand prompted scientists to search for a less expensive alternative.
Arnold Collins &#; the American chemist &#; created one of the first synthetic rubbers on account, which was neoprene. Today, neoprene remains a highly cost-effective synthetic rubber item that boasts a range of desirable attributes.

In general, synthetic elastomers are designed to offer certain qualities that make each material better or less effective for certain applications. Hailed as the all-purpose synthetic elastomer, neoprene rubber pads offer many of the qualities and traits that are most useful in the widest span of applications.
While it may not be the ideal choice for some specific functions, the strength of rubber neoprene pads lies in their versatility. Neoprene boasts resistance to vibration, abrasions, moderate tear resistance, and has a relatively low density. These characteristics along with an attractive price place neoprene pads at the top of most manufacturing lists.
Our ultra-dense neoprene pads can typically be used to dampen and isolate noise and vibration. The ability of neoprene to absorb shocks and vibration can be directly attributed to its large molecular structure.
This elastomer has large networks of molecules that are linked and will flex anytime force is applied. Once the force is removed, the neoprene molecules will rebound.
This flexing and rebounding action causes the initial force and vibration to be dissipated. As a result, when the force passes through your neoprene rubber pads, the actual strength of the vibration is mitigated.
Neoprene and other elastomers are offered in several different combinations to meet most applications. One key factor is the hardness or durometer of the material, which is measured by a durometer.
In other words, durometer is the material's resistance to permanent indentation. Utilizing a durometer will allow you to determine whether you need soft neoprene pads or hard neoprene pads.
Durometer is one key variable that is present in every form of most materials. Durometer is needed to determine the density, pliability, and flexibility.
If you have a specific need, we can create the perfect rubber neoprene die cut. We use state-of-the-art equipment to carefully shape pads from our rolls of neoprene material to your exact specifications. We can even create different neoprene vibration pads in different thicknesses and in many different durometers.
How do you know if neoprene pads are right for you? In reality, you don't have to know. You simply tell us your needs, application goals, and budget &#; then we'll guide you toward the best solution. We will even help you choose the right thickness, color, width, length, and other details based on the application.
We're a full-service custom manufacturer with the capacity to meet neoprene rubber orders of all sizes. We bring a wide range of experience across all industries, especially:
