Linagard® OZ rubber is a natural rubber vulcanisate formulated for excellent resistance to abrasion, UV light and ozone attack. Linatex® premium rubber is well known for its properties of resilience, abrasion resistance and vibration and noise absorptionIn certain applications however, where high levels of ozone or UV light are present, unprotected pure natural rubber may be subject to surface deterioration. Linagard®OZ overcomes this potential limitation. Linagard® OZ rubber, as the rubber leaches it’s own ‘antiozonant’ for protection. This makes it ideal for exposed wet-dry applications that are prone to scuffing and abrasions.
