Sponge Neoprene Cording - CORD027

Sponge Neoprene Cording – 7mm x 50m Length | Vital Parts – CORD027

Our Sponge Neoprene Cording is a versatile, high-performance sealing solution engineered for demanding applications across multiple industries. Manufactured from premium closed-cell neoprene sponge rubber, this lightweight yet durable cording provides superior compression sealing, weather resistance and thermal stability for both indoor and outdoor applications.

What are Sponge Neoprene Cords?

Sponge Neoprene Cords are flexible, compressible rubber sealing components made from closed-cell neoprene foam. Unlike solid rubber alternatives, the sponge structure provides enhanced compression capabilities while maintaining excellent recovery properties. The closed-cell construction ensures the material is impermeable to air and water, making it ideal for creating watertight and airtight seals that conform to irregular surfaces and shapes.

Key Features:

• Manufactured from high-quality closed-cell neoprene sponge rubber
• Excellent temperature resistance from -40°C to +125°C (95°C continuous operation)
• Superior weathering resistance with UV and ozone stability
• Lightweight design with exceptional compression recovery
• Oil, chemical and water resistant properties
• Available in multiple diameter profiles and custom lengths
• Soft, compressible texture that conforms to irregular surfaces
• Non-water absorbing closed-cell structure

Key Applications and Industries

In the UK market, Sponge Neoprene Cording serves critical sealing functions across diverse sectors. Automotive applications include door seals, boot seals and engine bay gaskets for classic cars, buses and commercial vehicles.
