A blowout preventer assembly 10 includes opposed rams 12, 14, each including a rubber or elastomer sealing assembly 16, 18, with a plurality of inserts 20 forming an array 22 of metal inserts within each sealing assembly. Each insert has an upper body 24, a lower body 26, and a rib 50. Each upper and lower body includes a trailing face 36, a radially outward opposite face 38 and a leading face 40. An antiextrusion ledge 46 minimizes the extrusion gap between the OD of a tubular in the BOP and the leading face of the metal inserts in the array.
