Cloth Insert Solid Rubber Sheet

A sheet material consisting of a vulcanized elastomeric material inclosing a sheet of nonmetallic cloth, or of alternate layers of nonmetallic cloth and elastomer with elastomeric faces. The elastomer is the primary substance and the nonmetallic cloth is inserted for stiffness and/or to prevent deformation under stress in its plane. It may be provided flat or in rolls. It is normally used as a gasket material. Sheets are limited to widths greater than 6 inches (152.4 mm). See also cloth, coated; cloth laminated; and rubber sheet, solid.
