Ribbed Smoke Sheet
Ribbed Smoked Sheet (RSS) Rubber is a high-quality natural rubber produced by coagulating latex, rolling it into thin sheets, and drying it in smokehouses. It is widely used in industries such as tire manufacturing, automotive parts, and industrial goods due to its excellent elasticity, strength, and durability.
