Reinforced rubber
Reinforced rubber is otherwise known as rubber sheet reinforced with canvas. Reinforcing rubber with fabric increases its durability as well as its resistance to tearing and abrasion. A rubber sheet with inserts, depending on the rubber compound used, is characterized by thermal stability, very good resistance to extreme weather conditions, ozone attacks, and a wide range of chemical substances.
What is reinforced concrete?
Reinforced rubber is a smooth plate that has been additionally strengthened during the vulcanization process with one, two, or three fabric inserts, forming an integral part of the finished plate. Fabric-reinforced rubber does not wear out or lose its properties due to prolonged exposure to various environmental conditions. It is designed to withstand the most extreme physical conditions. Suitable for general-purpose and specialized applications.
Available rubber reinforcement options
A wide range of rubber sheets reinforced with inserts such as cotton, nylon (polyamide), polyester, and fiberglass is available on the market. The most commonly used reinforcements are found in sheets made of NBR, EPDM, SBR, CR, NR rubber.

The use of reinforced rubber.
Reinforced rubber has a wide range of applications in various industries, including automotive, defense, food, chemical, railway, maritime, and energy industries. It can be used for sealing, as sealing tapes, as well as rubber floor mats and industrial mats. Here are some other applications of rubber mats with inserts:
- carburetor diaphragms
- fuel pumps
- aviation hoses
- gaskets
- workshop tables
- control devices
- cable covers
- agricultural machinery components
- transmission belts
- collectors
- conveyors
- hydraulic installations
- horse stall partitions
- playground mats
- outdoor gym floors
When to use reinforced rubber?
Reinforced rubber mat excels in areas where increased resistance to mechanical damage, pressure, tearing, and abrasion is crucial, as well as in heavy-duty and high-load conditions.
The benefits of using reinforced rubber
Reinforced rubber sheet provides additional durability and offers benefits such as:
- higher mechanical resistance to breakage, abrasion
- resistance to environmental conditions
- possibility of using reinforced rubber sheet in demanding applications
- high resistance to tearing, cracking, or deformations
- high elasticity
- made of non-absorbent material
- high dimensional stability
- fatigue resistance
- can work under high force pressure
