Rubber bands are the kind of things you need far more often than you realize. When you’re at home, you can usually improvise something in a pinch. When you’re outdoors, however, it’s another story. That’s why we’d recommend stocking up on Ranger Bands. Not only will they assist you in so many tasks, but they’re made from EPDM Rubber for outstanding heat, UV, and saltwater resistance. They’ll work well in water and at temps anywhere from -50 to 300 degrees. Not only are they the ideal rubber bands for performance, but they can burn for 3 minutes to help you start a fire if need be. Pick up a pack of 20 instead of carrying a rubber band ball around in your camping pack.
