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:
Rubber Products’ Storage/Shelf Life
1. Store rubber products and components in an area that is as cool as possible.
Generally, the temperature should not exceed 100F.
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.
