Elastomer rubber pad bridge bearingElastomeric bearing pads use NR (Natural Rubber) or CR (Chloroprene Rubber). The minimum thickness of a sheet, in accordance with EN 1337-3, may in no circumstance be under 5 mm, or over 25 mm.
Shuanglin Elastomeric bearing pads are designed for use in Bridges and other structures such as Buildings as a vertical load bearing component. They are manufactured from high quality materials with number of layers of steel plates depending on the type of bearings highly strong and extremely resistance to weathering, ageing with almost no influence from UV radiation and Ozone. Sheets of high strength steel are capsulated by Elastomer either NR or CR type.
