Nebar - Cork - Elastomer Jointings

Rubber bonded cork gasket material is a unique product. Despite over 50 years of service it possesses properties which mean that for many applications it is still the preferred or only choice.

Blending rubber and cork endows the product with the advantages of both parent materials. Throught careful monitoring of cork quality and selection of elastomers, properties can be tailored to provide the required characteristics.

The wide range of standard products available within the Nebar range covers a broad spectrum of applications. Full technical support is available from James Walker making it easy to specify Nebar as part of an existing or new design of assembly.
