English-Spanish translations for rubber

gomaEn otra ocasión, un montón de patos de goma llegaron a tierra. In another case, a contingent of rubber ducks floated ashore. El que se recubran las trampas sencillamente con algo de goma no supone ninguna diferencia para las patas. The fact that you cover the traps with a bit of rubber makes no difference at all to an animal's legs. Los fabricantes deberían pues modificar con urgencia la estructura de los neumáticos y la dureza de la goma, lo que tendría efectos nocivos sobre la adherencia. Manufacturers would therefore be obliged to urgently modify the structure of the tyre and the hardness of the rubber by reducing the grip.
