Butyl Rubber is a synthetic elastomeric material comprising of a blend of isobutylene and isoprene. Due to this combination of materials, Butyl is an excellent shock absorber and has low moisture and gas permeability, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial applications. Butyl is available in two varieties of Shore hardness - 60SH (B70) and 65SH (SM147). Please contact us for more information about the specific gasket materials for your application.
| Material | Temperature Range | Tensile Strength | Abrasion Resistance | Download |
| Butyl 60SH (B70) | min -45 max +130 °C | 3.0 MPa | 190 mm3 | |
| Butyl 65SH (SM147) | min -40 max +140 °C | 5.0 MPa | 190 mm3 |
Our highly experienced technicians can advise you on the best sheet materials and manufacturing processes for a wide range of gasket applications.
The high level of resilience to harsh environmental factors, including extreme temperature ranges, and low permeability, make Butyl gaskets the ideal choice for outdoor applications where water-tight seals are vital. Butyl also provides high chemical resistance and low inertness, qualities that are important within the pharmaceutical and food sectors. These gaskets can be found in a wide range of industries, including automotive, HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning), roofing, and general construction.
