The invention relates to an article comprising a main body that consists of a polymer material having elastic properties, particularly a metal-rubber element for rail vehicles. The article, in particular the metal-rubber element, comprises a base body made from a polymer material having elastic properties, for improving fire retardant properties, said base body being composed of, partially or completely, two layers of the polymer material, the first layer and the second layer being made from a rubber mixture, the second layer being the layer facing the outer environment and the rubber mixture of the second layer also contains at least one flame-proofing agent. |
