FAQs

What is the size of these rubber bands?

These are Size 91 rubber bands, measuring approximately 12mm in width and 200mm in length.

How much rubber do I get in a pack?

Each pack contains 454 grams of natural rubber bands.

Are these rubber bands suitable for outdoor use?

While they can be used outdoors, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperatures may degrade the natural rubber over time, reducing their elasticity and lifespan.

Can I use these to seal food packaging?

Yes, they can be used to temporarily seal opened bags of dry goods. However, they are not airtight seals and should not be used for items requiring vacuum sealing or long-term preservation.

How should I store the rubber bands to maximize their lifespan?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat to maintain their elasticity and prevent degradation.

What makes these bands 'economical'?

The 454g pack provides a large quantity of durable rubber bands at a cost-effective price per band, making them suitable for high-volume usage without frequent repurchasing.

Can I cut these rubber bands to size?

While you can cut them, it's generally not recommended as it will compromise their elasticity and structural integrity for fastening purposes.

Troubleshooting

Rubber bands break easily during stretching

Ensure you are not overstretching beyond the natural elasticity of the band. Check for nicks or cuts on the band. If multiple bands break, they might be old or exposed to adverse conditions; consider using a fresh band from the pack.

Bands are sticky or melt together

This can happen if stored in high temperatures or humidity. Separate them gently. Store future batches in a cooler, drier environment. If severely affected, they may be unusable.

Rubber band leaves marks on surfaces

This is more common with prolonged contact or with certain finishes. Ensure the band is not left on a sensitive surface for extended periods, especially in warm conditions. Wipe the surface after removing the band if marks are observed.
