Polyurethane Elastomer is a very versatile engineering material which provides superior properties compared to rubber. Polyurethane offers much better tensile strength sometimes up to 5 times of rubber. While its also stronger, Polyurethane also offers significantly better abrasion resistance compared to rubber which makes polyurethane an unreplaceable material in today’s engineering design.All of these properties attribute to longer life expectancy for Polyurethane compared to rubber which results in long run cost efficiency when replacing rubber to Polyurethane.
Advantages of Polyurethane over Rubber
Higher load bearing capacity
Higher abrasion/cut/tear resistance
Greater durability and flexibility
Higher hardness range
Resistance to oils and solvents
Have a nice weekend all ..
