Standard Urethane Sheeting
Urethane is a durable, versatile material designed to withstand demanding industrial applications. Standard urethane sheeting provides excellent abrasion resistance, load-bearing performance, and durability for applications such as forming pads, chute liners, wear components, and media blast material.
PSI Urethanes keeps cast urethane sheets in stock to provide a cost-effective option when tight thickness tolerances are not required. Our stock urethane sheets are available in multiple durometers, thicknesses, sizes, and colors, making it easy to select the right material for your application.

Benefits Of Using Standard Urethane Sheets
Many industries choose standard urethane sheets over rubber because polyurethane offers greater versatility, durability, and performance in demanding applications. Key benefits of standard urethane sheeting include:
-
Wide Range of Durometers
Urethane can be manufactured across a broad range of hardness levels, from the Shore OO to Shore D scales, allowing the material to be tailored to applications ranging from soft cushioning to rigid wear components. -
Sound and Vibration Dampening
Standard and custom urethane formulations can provide effective sound and vibration dampening for equipment, machinery, and other industrial applications. -
Self-Sealing Properties
Urethane’s self-sealing properties make it well suited for applications such as tabletops and backing pads for dies. -
Excellent Abrasion Resistance
For applications exposed to severe abrasion and wear, urethane can outlast many alternative materials, including rubber, helping extend component life and reduce replacement frequency. -
Chemical and Ozone Resistance
Urethane provides excellent resistance to many mineral-based oils, hydrocarbons, fats, greases, petroleum products, solvents, and ozone, making it suitable for challenging industrial environments.
-
Customizable Formulations
PSI offers a wide selection of resins, curatives, and additives that allow urethane formulations to be customized for specific performance and application requirements. -
Low-Temperature Flexibility
Unlike many rubber materials that harden as temperatures fall, urethane can maintain its flexibility in low-temperature environments. PSI can formulate urethane for Arctic-like conditions, temperatures up to 250°F, and applications exposed to sudden temperature changes. -
Cast Urethane Sheeting Industrial Applications
Die Cutting or Waterjet Cut Parts
PSI Urethanes standard urethane sheeting can be used to provide you with an economical way of making a wide array of products, without the need for tooling. Urethane sheeting is a great alternative for rings, gaskets, squeegees, vibration dampening pads, and many other applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some of the most common questions about our standard urethane sheeting:
What is standard urethane sheeting?
Standard urethane sheeting is cast polyurethane sheet stock kept in inventory in common durometers, thicknesses, and sizes. It gives you an economical, no-tooling way to make forming pads, chute liners, wear parts, and media blast material when tight thickness tolerances aren’t critical.
What durometers and thicknesses are standard urethane sheets available in?
PSI stocks standard urethane sheets in 60A, 70A, 80A, and 90A durometers, with custom durometers available from 25 Shore OO to 75 Shore D. Standard thicknesses run from .125″ to 2″, with a thickness tolerance of ±0.030″ to ±0.045″.
What are standard urethane sheets used for?
Common applications include forming and press pads, chute and hopper liners, media blast material, wear strips and pads, conveyor skirting, die-cutting pads, and gaskets or seals cut from sheet, across food processing, metal forming, mining, marine, and automotive.
How fast can I get urethane sheet stock?
Because PSI keeps a large stock of standard cast urethane sheets, in-stock sizes ship quickly. Custom sizes up to 18″ thick, 55″ wide, and 138″ long (seamed for larger) are made to order.
What is the difference between standard and precision urethane sheeting?
Standard urethane sheeting is a cost-saving option when tight thickness tolerances aren’t critical; precision urethane sheeting is ground to much tighter tolerances for applications that require exact thickness.
