Seafood Band Size Reference
Lobster, Crab & Geoduck Band Sizes
Compare the available seafood band formats by lay-flat length, band width, and material thickness. Measurements are displayed in inches by default and can be converted to centimeters below.
How to read the table: Lay-flat length is measured from end to end while the band is resting flat without being stretched. Width refers to the width of the rubber strip, while thickness refers to the material thickness.
Seafood Rubber Band Size Options
| Application | Lay-Flat Length (in) | Width (in) | Thickness (in) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lobster | 1" | 1/2" | 1/16" |
| Crab | 1 1/2" | 5/8" | 1/16" |
| Geoduck | 3" | 1/4" | 3/64" |
Measurement note: Lay-flat length is measured end to end without stretching. Confirm current specifications and availability before placing a bulk or recurring order.

Proper storage before use helps maintain the condition of natural rubber lobster and crab bands during inventory, warehousing, and recurring commercial supply.

Avoid Direct Sunlight
Keep stored products away from prolonged direct sunlight where possible to help preserve the condition of the natural rubber material.
