Compound

Neoprene (CR)

The balanced all-rounder. Moderate oil resistance combined with genuine weather resistance and inherent flame retardance — no other single compound covers that spread as cheaply.

Why specify CR

  • Good weather, ozone and ageing resistance
  • Moderate resistance to oils and refrigerants
  • Inherently flame-retardant
  • Good resilience for anti-vibration duty

Where it fails

Beaten by NBR on oil and by EPDM on weather. Choose it when you genuinely need both, not as a default.

We would rather talk you out of the wrong compound than sell you a part that comes back in three months. If the duty is borderline, send the operating conditions and we will say so plainly.

Typical components in CR

  • Anti-vibration mounts and pads
  • Marine and outdoor components
  • General-purpose gaskets
  • Bonded bushes and buffers

Send a drawing, a sample, or just a photo of the worn part.

We will identify the compound, quote the tooling and get a first sample to you. No drawing needed — a measured sketch or the old component is enough to start.
