40 Duro, Wear Resistant, Natural Rubber
Chutex 40 Sheet Rubber is a pink, premium grade, soft, flexible and highly elastic 40 Duro, wear resistant natural rubber sheet. It has excellent resistance to wet and dry fine particle sliding abrasion.
Chutex 40 will display resistance to some mild chemicals, including acids and alkalis used in mineral processing.
Chutex 40 has good physical properties including mechanical strength and cut and tear resistance. This makes it suitable for wear protection and sealing applications which require the rubber to be both flexible and compressible.

Applications
Chutex 40 Sheet Rubber has been designed primarily for use as a flexible, wear resistant rubber sheet or seal. It’s mainly used in abrasion applications in the mining and mineral processing industry but can be used for any general sealing applications. Typical applications include:
- Chute lining
- Premium chutex skirting rubber
- Wear curtains
- Dust sealing curtains and skirts
- Pipe repair bandage
- Pipe wipers / drill rod seals
- Dust deflectors
- Vacuum blankets
It can also be used for other applications which require a flexible abrasion resistant rubber including:
- Loading socks
- Transfer and joining sleeves
- Variety of sealing applications
