Re: Mean green rubber now back in stock
Is the loss in strength after one hour loaded permanent, or is that something that is restored after the band is relaxed?

Most "regular" rubber, if stretched to 3.5X its original length, will be permanently altered after any period of time; however, not that much damage will have been done, relatively speaking, in that a subsequent "soaking" period and discharge should result in roughly the same amount of force being imparted to a spear. (Obviously, and with constant use, the amount of power it imparts is going to drop over the life of the rubber). If stretched to 4X its length for that same period, the damage will be more substantial, resulting in a more significant decrease of power.

It's the best rubber we've managed to get our hands on hence why we've had such trouble keeping it in stock. Now if only we could keep it in stock everyone would be happy.

Re: Mean green rubber now back in stock
Anyone know what diameter band and lengths I'd need for a Wong 55 GR?
