The objective of the present invention is to provide an acrylic
ester-based copolymer rubber which gives a rubber product excellent in
fuel oil resistance and tensile strength and which is crosslinkable with
sulfur and/or an organic peroxide and to provide a process for producing
the same, as well as a rubber composition, an oil-resistant and
weather-resistant rubber composition, and an oil-resistant and
weather-resistant rubber product. The acrylic ester-based copolymer
rubber of the present invention comprises a structural unit derived from
at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of an acrylic
acid alkyl ester and an acrylic acid alkoxyalkyl ester in an amount from
40 to 91.9% by mass, a structural unit derived from an unsaturated
nitrile monomer in an amount from 8 to 40% by mass, and a structural unit
derived from at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of a
non-conjugated cyclic polyene and a compound having a specific structure
in an amount from 0.1 to 20% by mass (provided 100% by mass of total of
these), and has a Mooney viscosity [ML.sub.1+4(100.degree. C.)] in the
range from 10 to 200.
