Rubber Products’ Storage/Shelf Life

From time to time we have received inquiries regarding the storage and shelf life of

rubber products and components. These items when properly stored have a lengthy

shelf and service life. Our rubber products and components, if properly stored, will have

a shelf life of five years or more.

The following is a general guide for proper storage:

1. Store rubber products and components in an area that is as cool as possible.

Generally, the temperature should not exceed 100F.

2. The storage area should be away from operating electrical equipment such

as motors and generators.

3. Where possible, items should be stored in air tight and light tight containers.

A twist top plastic bag in a closed cardboard box fulfills these requirements.

4. Unprotected rubber products and components that are placed in open bins or

shelves should not be stored for more than a few months.

5. Inventory should be rotated to assure that the oldest materials are sold first.
