Best Answer

Neoprene can withstand higher heat than most natural rubbers. The primary advantage of using neoprene in flame or high heat situations is that instead of dripping and thus constantly exposing fresh fuel, neoprene chars over and puts itself out.

Dupont recommends a maximum temp of 392 F for neoprene.
