Rubber Pallets

Hey Jonathan!

I feel like I ask more questions than anybody else on this forum, but hey! I consider you a mentor and this is what the forum is for, right?

I really want to replace the rubber on my aluminum pallets. I have 4 16"x18" pallets that I've used for a while. They came to me already coated with a layer of rubber. Recently I have tried using solvents to remove any residue and gunk. The pallets started looking pretty gross.

Where might I be able to get some rubber to replace my old stuff? I've read one of the threads on here about how to remove the rubber, I think I will be okay with part! I just want a good place to get some materials.

Also, should I be using pallet tape on top of my rubber pallets? I haven't so far and there is no issues on my printing... However, I was thinking that pallet tape could help clean this stuff up much easier.

Thanks for all the help,

Yeah pallet rubber is not easy to get in bulk. I may be able to help you with that if you need a roll of it.

Yes, you can use pallet tape with pallet rubber but you'll want to remove the pallet tape after each job so it comes off easily without pulling up the pallet rubber ;)
