FAB 3X is a field-grade, air-dried block rubber derived from naturally coagulated latex collected from rubber plantations. It is an economical and practical choice for manufacturers seeking a cost-effective raw material for general-purpose rubber products. Unlike technically specified rubber (TSR), FAB 3X is processed with minimal mechanical intervention, making it more affordable while still offering reliable performance for less demanding applications.

FAB 3X is air-dried and block-pressed, typically packaged in bales for ease of handling and transportation. Though it contains a higher level of natural impurities compared to TSR grades, it remains a suitable material for industries where ultra-high purity is not essential.

 

  • FAB 3X is a premium grade of natural rubber, often produced under stricter quality control.
  • Key Uses:
    • Automotive Industry: High-performance tyres, vibration isolators, suspension components.
    • Industrial Goods: Hoses, gaskets, conveyor belts requiring higher tensile properties.
    • Footwear: High-quality shoe soles.
  • Reason for Use: FAB 3X is known for its superior elasticity, low dirt, and consistency, making it reliable for demanding applications.
