Crumb Rubber for Molded Products
We make crumb rubber for molded work from quality truck tires in Galion, Ohio. It’s all-black, wire-free material. Manufacturers use it to make mats, wheel chocks, speed bumps, and other pressed or bonded parts.
The mesh size changes how the crumb packs in the mold and how it mixes with the binder. We quote the grade you specify.
Molded Mats, Wheel Chocks, and Speed Bumps
Floor mats, equipment mats, wheel chocks, and speed bumps are often made with recycled crumb. The crumb is mixed, pressed, or molded, then cured or bound, depending on the process. A finer grade is common because it packs more uniformly. A coarser grade can be right if the part or the recipe calls for it.
If you’re qualifying a new grade, ask for a spec sheet and start with a size close to what you already run.
Crumb Rubber Sizes for Molding
These are the grades molded-rubber buyers ask us for most:
- 20/30 mesh crumb rubber, a screened mid-fine cut
- 20 minus crumb rubber, also called a 20 mesh passing grade
- 30 minus crumb rubber, a finer passing grade
We also make 10/20 mesh if a part needs a coarser crumb. Custom sizes are available on request. All of these grades are made from truck tires, and they’re all black.
How We Make the Crumb
At Galion, truck tires go through a primary shredder, a secondary shredder, and a cracker mill. Then we screen to size. The crumb we sell for molding is wire-free. Numeric lab values are on the spec sheet, not on this page.
