Premium Ribbed Smoked Sheets (RSS)
Overview: RSS – The Traditional Mark of Quality
Ribbed Smoked Sheets (RSS) represent the traditional and most recognized form of processed natural rubber, known for its high purity, strength, and excellent aging properties. Our premium grade RSS undergoes meticulous processing, including thorough smoking and drying, resulting in a product with low moisture content and superior preservation characteristics.
✨ Premium Grade Advantages and Specifications
We offer various grades of RSS (typically RSS 1X, RSS 1, RSS 2, and RSS 3) with a focus on delivering high-end classifications (RSS 1 and RSS 2) for demanding applications.
Characteristic | Premium Grade Standard (e.g., RSS 1) |
Visual Appearance | Light amber/brown, clean, free from mold or bubbles. |
Smell | Distinctive smoked odor, free from objectionable smell. |
Contaminants | Guaranteed low level of dirt and foreign matter. |
Aging Properties | Excellent stability due to effective drying and smoking. |
Packing | Sheets packed in bales (typically $111.11 \text{ kg}$ or $33.33 \text{ kg}$) protected by thin polyethylene or polythene wrap, as per client specification. |
Key Strengths
High Tensile Strength: RSS grades, particularly RSS 1, are prized for their high inherent strength and excellent resistance to tear and abrasion, making them ideal for durable components.
Excellent Processability: The traditional smoking process effectively stabilizes the rubber, leading to predictable compounding and molding behavior.
Low Water Absorption: The intensive drying process results in very low moisture content, which is critical for minimizing swelling and dimensional changes in the final product.
🎯 Recommended Applications
RSS grades are versatile and utilized in products where strength, durability, and resilience are essential:
Tyre Production: Car, truck, and aircraft tyres (especially sidewalls and tread compounds).
Engineering Components: Heavy-duty belts, conveyor belts, and transmission belts.
High-End Molded Goods: Durable flooring, anti-vibration mounts, and industrial rollers.
Footwear: High-performance, durable soles and heels.
📦 Logistics and Assurance
We ensure that all our RSS shipments are handled under strict quality protocols, guaranteeing the visual and technical integrity of the sheets upon arrival at your facility.
