Material Specifications |
| Thickness (Nominal) | Material Coating and Color | Material Base Fiber | Ambient Temp. Range | Applications |
| .020" (.51 mm) | Black Neoprene | Nylon | -60 F to 250 F (-51 C to 121 C) |
Cr - Chloroprene Polymer is resistant to moderate chemicals: acids, oils, fats, grease, many solvents, and ozone. Attacked by strong oxidizing acids, esters, ketones, chlorinated, aromatic, and nitro hydrocarbons. Neoprene has good weathering properties, is flame retarding and has good general physical properties. |
| .036" (.91 mm) | Black Neoprene | Nylon | -60 F to 250 F (-51 C to 121 C) |

Black Hypalon |
Nylon |
-60 F to 300 F |
CSM - Chlorosulfonated Butadiene is very similar to neoprene with improved acid resistance and high ozone resistance. Attacked by concentrated oxidizing acids, esters, ketones, chlorinated, aromatic, and nitro hydrocarbons. Very high ozone resistance. Hypalon ranks as one of the best elastomers for use in environments where corrosive chemicals are encountered, particularly oxidizing agents like sulfuric acid and hypachlorites. |
| .024" (.61 mm) | Green Hypalon | Nylon |
-60 F to 300 F |
CSM - Chlorosulfonated Butadiene is similar to neoprene with improved acid resistance and high ozone resistance. Attacked by concentrated oxidizing acids, esters, ketones, chlorinated, aromatic, and nitro hydrocarbons. Very high ozone resistance. Hypalon ranks as one of the best elastomers for use in environments where corrosive chemicals are encountered, particularly oxidizing agents like sulfuric acid and hypachlorites. |
| .020" (.51 mm) | Silver Aluminum | Fiberglass |
-100 F to 550 F |
Fiberglass is a man-made material whose main constituent is silica sand. Each fiber is a tiny solid glass rod. It has excellent heat resistance and is not combustible. It will start to melt at about 750 F. The melting process proceeds slowly and between 1300 F and 1500 F fiberglass becomes liquid. Since it cannot absorb moisture, it will not rot or decay. Fiberglass is resistant to many solvents, weather, and corrosive vapors. Fiberglass with an aluminum cover has a 95% reflective heat property. It works well in high heat applications. |
| .022" (.56 mm) | Green Red Silicone | Fiberglass |
-100 F to 450 F |
SI - Organic Silicone Polymer Is generally resistant to moderate or oxidizing chemicals, ozone, and concentrated sodium hydroxide. It has fair resistance to alkalines. It can be attacked by many solvents, oils, concentrated acids, and diluted sodium hydroxide. |
| .010" (.25 mm) | Brown Teflon™ | Fiberglass | -100 F to 500 F (-73 C to 260 C) |
PTEE - Polytetrafluoroethylene - Hexafluoropropylene has very good chemical inertness and resistance to a wide range of fluids. There are only a few rare fluids that will attack Teflon. It has toughness over a temperature range of -100 F to + 500 F. Teflon is a DuPont Trademark. |
