Durability
Samples from every batch of Uniband bands are tested on a dynamic cycle durability device. In this test the bands are stretched repeatedly to 300% elongation; this is twice the elongation amount used in most exercise programs. It is not recommended under normal circumstances to stretch them by more than 250% elongation. In this arduous test Uniband bands are expected to withstand a minimum of 10,000 stretches; usually they last for 25,000 - 30,000 which is many times longer than the normal life usage in practice. Latex bands on the other hand are much more variable and often break anywhere between 3,000 - 20,000 stretches. Uniband bands are highly consistent when used within normal operating parameters whereas latex bands can be inconsistent and unpredictable.
