Product Information

Full details

The 5 Star Office Rubber Bands (No.19) are designed for office administrators, warehouse staff, and home organizers who require a reliable and sustainable solution for bundling documents and packages. The key benefit is their construction from 80 percent pure, sustainably sourced rubber, offering high elasticity and consistent strength for daily tasks. However, users should note that these are natural-colored, industrial-grade rubber bands, which may not be suitable for applications requiring high heat resistance or extreme chemical exposure.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What are the dimensions of a No.19 rubber band?

These bands measure 89mm in length and 1.5mm in width.

Are these bands suitable for food contact?

These are intended for general office and organizational use and are not certified for direct food contact.

How many bands are in the 454g bag?

Each bag contains approximately 1335 individual rubber bands.

Can these bands be reused?

Yes, their high-quality composition allows for repeated stretching and removal, provided they are not over-extended.

Why is there a white powder on the bands?

This is a standard anti-tacking agent used in manufacturing to prevent the bands from sticking together in the bag.

Troubleshooting

Rubber band feels slightly sticky

This is a natural characteristic of rubber over time; a light dusting of talcum powder can restore a non-tacky surface.

Bands losing elasticity

Ensure they are stored away from direct sunlight and heat sources, as UV exposure accelerates the breakdown of natural rubber polymers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High elasticity and durability for repeated use
  • Environmentally conscious material sourcing
  • Large quantity per bag ensures long-term supply
  • Resealable storage bag included
  • Consistent sizing for reliable bundling

Cons

  • Not intended for high-heat environments
  • Natural rubber can degrade over years if exposed to direct UV light
  • Not suitable for heavy-duty industrial binding

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These rubber bands require no specialized setup—simply open the resealable grip bag and remove the desired amount. To maintain the integrity of the rubber, store the bag in a cool, dark environment. Natural rubber is susceptible to oxidation and degradation when exposed to constant sunlight or extreme temperatures. Ensure the grip bag is sealed after each use to prevent dust accumulation, which can make the bands appear aged or sticky over time.
