RubberForm Load Bearing Rubber Pads

---

RubberForm Load Bearing Rubber Pads are used extensively in standard construction applications, precast and prestressed concrete bridges, buildings and structural steel bearings applications, as well as machinery, equipment foundation, railway tie pads, and shock and vibration isolation.

RubberForm Load Bearing Rubber Pads are made from RubberForm masticated rubber which is a fully cured fiber reinforced rubber made from a proprietary blend of recycled rubbers. During the manufacturing process synthetic fibers are added to the base rubber compounds to create an internal stiffening much like steel reinforced concrete. This mesh structure delivers enhanced tensile and compressive strength, stiffness, tear resistance, durability, and superior ozone and weather resistance. These properties cannot be matched by virgin product alone.

Our premium grade RubberForm XP Elastomeric Load Bearing Rubber Pads are constructed in a unique cross ply manufacturing process, giving uniform physical properties in all directions. These premium grade load bearing pads are designed for more demanding structural applications with greater load requirements.

RubberForm Load Bearing Rubber Pads are manufactured in continuous cure presses, not batch presses, which allow us to economically produce custom shapes and sizes and meet the demands of large scale construction projects. Load bearing pads can be supplied to specified dimensions ready for installation, including required cut outs and holes, or in sheet form for later sizing.

Stock sheets are available in 1.219m x 1.219m (48" x 48") and 3.17mm to 25.4 mm (1/8” to 1") thickness. Custom sizes to suit your application.

RubberForm elastomeric bearing rubber pads have been used in:
• Bridge bearing masonry pads
• Lighting standard pad seats
• Handrail bearing pads
• Pads between steel beams, girders, grates and columns
• Pads between bridge and roof beams and substructures.
• Shock and vibration isolation
• Heavy equipment mounting pads
• Railway tie pad applications
• Pads underneat concrete vaults
• Civil engineering projects

RubberForm Load Bearing Rubber Pads are available in two grades – SP and XP.
