Custom Chloroprene & Neoprene® Extrusions
What is Chloroprene/Neoprene?
For over 60 years, Kismet Rubber Products has been a leading extruder of custom Chloroprene, or Neoprene®1, parts. Our staff has the expertise and application knowledge to manufacture durable, high performance extruded parts using Chloroprene and to assist with material selection to determine if Neoprene® is the best material for your part. We serve the OEM and replacement part markets specializing in electronic, aerospace, healthcare, construction, transportation, appliance, marine and power generation applications.
Chloroprene, or Neoprene, is a black rubber that is highly resistant to oil, petroleum, ozone, heat, and sunlight. It also performs well in temperatures ranging from -67°F to +220°F. As a result, products manufactured using Chloroprene are used throughout the industry for applications in high heat, corrosive, high wear, or outdoor environments. These include processing equipment, power generation components, motors and engines, and outdoor enclosures and equipment. Chloroprene is commonly known by its tradename - Neoprene®.
