Neoprene Rubber Bearing Pads
Hanna Rubber Company’s high-performance neoprene (polychloroprene) bearing pads are precisely formulated to satisfy AASHTO M251-06 Grade 3, AREMA Section 18, Caltrans Section 51, ASTM D4014, and CAN/CSA standards for the most demanding infrastructure environments. Neoprene’s inherently robust chemistry delivers superior resistance to oils, ozone, UV exposure, weathering, and a wide range of industrial chemicals—ensuring exceptional durability and minimal maintenance over decades of service. Our neoprene pads accommodate expansion and contraction of precast concrete and steel components, while expertly dissipating dynamic loads, dampening vibration, and attenuating noise to protect sensitive structural elements. Available off-the-shelf in thicknesses from 1/8″ to 18″ and widths of 36″ and 48″, with customizable durometer (50–70), size, and shape options, these pads can be tailored for girder seats, expansion joints, seismic restraint systems, and heavy-duty industrial installations. Engineered for reliable performance in environments from –10 °F to 250 °F, our neoprene bearing pads feature enhanced compression set resistance and excellent rebound properties, making them the preferred choice for highway overpasses, marine structures, petrochemical plants, and transit terminals across the U.S. and Canada.
