Ranger Bands

Product Information

Wazoo Ranger Bands are super strong, super durable EPDM rubber bands, which are well-known for being useful in camping, hiking and survival activities.

The procedure involves banding the body part with a tight latex (rubber) band to restrict blood flow.Stretching a rubber band will cause it to release heat, while releasing it after it has been stretched will make it absorb heat, causing its surroundings to become a little cooler. Originally, and in some instances still today, the rubber tubes will then be placed on mandrels, curing the rubber with heat, and then slicing them across the width of the tube into little bands. While other rubber products may use synthetic rubber, most rubber bands are primarily manufactured using natural rubber because of its superior elasticity. You can prevent your cell phone from sliding around your dashboard by circling it with a ranger band.

Most rubber bands are manufactured out of natural rubber as well as for latex free rubber bands or, especially at larger sizes, an elastomer, and are sold in a variety of sizes. If your sheath does not have a slot for your Ferro rod, you can use a ranger band to secure them both together. These simple bands have been widely embraced by the public, especially outdoorsmen, as an all around must-have device to join the ranks such as paracord, duct tape, and cable ties as smart survival tools.An EPDM Ranger Band does not stretch as much as a regular office-supply-type rubber band, but is much stronger and more durable. Using the standard method of cutting up inner tubes, they quickly outgrew this method and wanted to introduce better quality and consistency. Wazoo found a USA manufacturer to make them to their specifications out of EPDM, which is the toughest rubber available.
