Product Description
Unparalleled Resilience: Custom Cut Recycled Rubber is nearly unmatched in terms of durability. It has high degrees of abrasion resistance, impact absorbance, and water resistance. Plus, it is highly weather resistant, making it a long-lasting flooring or padding option for both indoor and outdoor applications. This rubber product is made from discarded vehicle tires and car tires which are designed specifically to handle some of the most extreme outdoor conditions; therefore, it is no surprise that Custom Cut Elephant Bark has many of the resilient features that tires display. Use this product for flooring or as a protective rubber pad, and you will not be disappointed.
1/4” Thick Recycled Rubber Sheet: This 6.4mm thick is an ideal choice when any rubber sheet is required. More durable than neoprene, less expensive than any other rubber sheet, and perhaps more UV resistant than EPDM, this recycled rubber sheet should be considered anytime hard rubber products are needed.
Custom-Cut to your Exact Dimensions: While you will find 247 dimensions to choose from in the dropdown menu above, if you need this recycled rubber in a specific dimension that is not listed here, please call us at 1-844-Rubber-4 to get the precise size for your project. We stock 1/4-inch thick recycled rubber rolls in 48-inch wide by 50 feet long and can produce any size that is a subset of this roll size.
Tire Derived Products: This product is a second life for waste car and commercial vehicle tires. Across the United States, the production of new goods from old, recycled tires that fulfill a wide range of needs has proven to be safe, durable, affordable and a smart investment. Tire-derived products (TDPs) fulfill technical standards for building construction, flooring, gasketing, padding, traffic control, playgrounds, industrial sealing, and many other applications. This tire derived sheet rubber product is an excellent choice for companies and consumers when a cost-effective and tough hard rubber is needed in a custom dimension.
The Size Effect: The intrinsic tensile strength of any rubber material is usually not associated immediately with its thickness. But thickness in a rubber part plays a large role in its protective qualities. All rubber strength properties like tensile, wear and breakage are lower the thicker the rubber sheet. This is the appropriately named size effect. A 1/4” thick recycled rubber sheet presents extremely high protective, i.e., tensile, qualities for the money. At 50% of the cost of synthetic rubber sheets, yet this recycled rubber sheet/roll possibly performs better. By increasing the thickness of a rubber sheet there is more material is available to resist any impact or load. This increased thickness disperses the burden over a larger area and reduces the strain.

Temporary Installations: | This rubberized flooring is generally heavy enough where its own weight will keep the roll on the ground. A 10ft length of 3/8 inch weighs about 80lbs. In order to keep the edges and entry points from being a trip hazard, double sided carpet tape can be used for a quick uniform and level installation. |
