Craig, I'd have a hunt around for some old conveyor belt rubber. Try a quarry or similar establishment.

If you can get polyurethane, I brought a set of rally art poly when I got my car in 2008, they have seen over 40000Kms of
gravel road and have no signs of wear.

Thanks gents I was after stuff around 4mm thick with a bit or reinforcing in the middle if I could get it, I only need 1m square , Steve Conveyor belt is too thick and heavy for what I am doing, I mite go to supa cheap or Autobarn and see how much there pre made ones are 30 x 50cm size is all I need, then 4 bits 1m long and 15cm wide bits to do around the 80s wheel arches, Craig

Insertion rubber is pretty weak. The internal reinforcing is only cotton.

I remember seeing these at a local truck spares place here on the GC for about $20ea a couple of yrs ago, maybe worth checking for a truck parts/accessories place nearby and see what they are offering.
