Low cost rubber bands for our enclosures

[Martin F]

Hi all,

We have a set of aluminium enclosures where we need black rubber bands at low cost.
Ideally, they should have a diameter of 5 cm, width 0.5-0.8 cm and thickness of 1-2 mm.

We're looking for something along the lines of these from Takachi:

Any idea of other places we can get these?

Thanks!
Martin

Can't think of a simpler solution, though you'd probably want a rectangular o-ring like this:

Contact some o-ring manufacturers/suppliers and see if they can help. A fairly soft material would be better, something around 60A shore hardness should be about right.
