irishrigger 32 #1 Posted June 17, 2022 Hi all, I was given a Emergency Pilot rig for a repack and when I opened it I found that the Rubber Bands had disintegrated as in the pictures. Looking for advice as to what is the best way to clean this up from the lines??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 598 #2 June 17, 2022 I just use my fingertips to strip away rotted rubber. Rubber rots out after 3 years in the California desert. A related problem is that rubber reacts chemically with brass grommets ... even nickel-plated brass grommets. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
