Usa Industrials BULK-RS-H60-244 Buna-n Rubber Sheet

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-RS-H60-244 is a stock-length Buna-N (nitrile) rubber sheet used as a gasket blank, vibration pad, seal material, or general-purpose cushioning layer in mechanical and industrial service applications. The sheet measures 1 inch thick by 12 inches wide by 12 inches long and carries a Shore A durometer rating of 50 to 60, placing it in the medium-firm range suited to sealing and dampening tasks. Tensile strength is rated at 900 psi. The black color is standard for Buna-N compound. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and maintenance mechanics typically cut these sheets to custom gasket or pad profiles on the job.

Buna-N rubber is the material of choice wherever petroleum-based fluids, oils, fuels, or hydraulic media contact the sealing surface. This sheet is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing gaskets, HVAC equipment isolation pads, pump mounting pads, flange gasket blanks, and similar cut-to-size applications. Its operating temperature range of -20 degrees F to 170 degrees F covers the majority of indoor mechanical service environments. Stock sheet format allows fabricators and field technicians to cut the exact profile needed using a utility knife, die cutter, or gasket punch set.

Key Features

• Buna-N (nitrile) compound resists petroleum oils, fuels, and hydraulic fluids
• Shore A durometer 50 to 60 for medium-firm sealing and vibration damping
• 900 psi tensile strength for reliable cut-gasket service
• Operating range of -20 degrees F to 170 degrees F
• Stock 12 x 12 inch sheet allows field or shop fabrication to any required profile
• 1 inch thickness suitable for heavy-duty pad and thick gasket applications

Compatibility

Designed as a cut-to-size Buna-N rubber sheet for use in plumbing, HVAC, mechanical, and industrial maintenance applications where nitrile rubber is the specified sealing or cushioning material.

Installation Notes

Cut to the required profile using a sharp utility knife, gasket punch, or die cutter on a stable flat surface. Power down or depressurize any system before removing an existing gasket or pad and installing a replacement. Buna-N rubber is not compatible with ketones, strong acids, or ozone-heavy environments - verify chemical compatibility before installation. Fabricated gaskets used in potable water or gas piping must comply with applicable local plumbing and mechanical codes.
