Aconductive rubber component 10 includes a laminate 9 in which conductive rubber layers 1 and insulating rubber layers 2 are laminated alternately in parallel, the conductive rubber layers 1 and the insulating rubber layers 2 are integrated at their boundaries by a cross-linking reaction, the conductive rubber layers 1 have a thickness of 0.01 mm to 1.0 mm and electrical conductivity such that the volume resistivity is 10 -5 Ω·cm or more and 10 K Ω·cm or less, and the insulating rubber layers have a thickness of 0.01 mm to 1.0 mm and electrical insulation properties such that the volume resistivity is 1 M Ω·cm or more and 10 16 Ω·cm or less. A solderable metal coating 3 is integrated with at least one surface of the laminate 9 that is perpendicular to the electrical conduction direction by the deposition of at least one selected from atoms and molecules. This conductive rubber component can have good compression load properties and good compression set properties, achieve a stable electric connection for a long period of time due to the good compression set properties, be soldered to a printed wiring board or the like because of the presence of the integrated metal coating, suppress the occurrence of burrs, reduce costs, and improve the production efficiency. |
