Comments about Alliance Sterling Rubber Bands, #64:
I bought the one pound box of Alliance "pale crepe gold" rubber bands. When exposed to moderate heat they become horribly sticky and their residue is a pain to clean off. Of course, the rubber band has also lost its elasticity by then, but still holds because of its stickiness. Everything's great until you need to use the cord or part that you had used the rubber band on. I threw out the unused rubber bands after discovering this.
The product shown on the Staples web site has a different color box, but it's still the same manufacturer. Maybe they have corrected the problem by using a different formulation, but I am not willing to take the chance. I suggest choosing a different manufacturer for your rubber band purchase.

I use these rubber band to dampen the vibrations in a tennis racket. This rubber band is higher quality than a standard rubber band of this size. If you are looking for a quality rubber band for this purpose this will work very well.
