A Grade Compound Wigwag

Product Name: A Grade Compound Wigwag Tyre Scrap
Category: Tyre Scrap / Reclaimed Rubber Material
Grade: A Grade
Form: Wigwag (Strip Form)


Product Description:

A Grade Compound Wigwag is a premium-quality form of reclaimed rubber material derived from the processing of used or scrap tyres. This compound is presented in a distinctive wigwag (zigzag) strip formation, achieved by cutting tyre tread layers or sidewall layers into uniform, flat strips. The term “wigwag” reflects the overlapping arrangement of these strips, typically banded for convenient handling, storage, and transportation.

This product is meticulously selected and sorted to ensure only the A-grade rubber compound is included—free from contaminants like wires, beads, steel, nylon fabric, or foreign matter. It is highly preferred in the rubber recycling and reprocessing industries due to its consistent quality and high rubber content.


Key Features:

  • High Rubber Content: Contains a substantial amount of natural and synthetic rubber, making it ideal for reprocessing and compounding.

  • Clean & Sorted: Free from steel, fiber, or bead wire contamination. Carefully processed for uniformity.

  • Standard Strip Size: Wigwag strips are neatly cut, making them suitable for immediate use in rubber compound manufacturing.

  • Eco-Friendly & Sustainable: Promotes recycling and reduces environmental impact by giving tyres a second life.

  • High Tensile Strength Material: Derived mostly from truck tyres, which possess stronger rubber compounds.

  • Flexible Applications: Suitable for a wide range of rubber products including mats, soles, belts, gaskets, automotive parts, and retreading.
