Do the rubber rings need to be replaced frequently or are they reuseable?

I have reused mine several times already. Unless they get torn or permanently creased I can't see them needing to be replaced or thrown away.

I have reused them 2 times so far. I do not know how many times they can be reused though.

I've been using these for a couple of years and have not yet had to discard/replace any of the rubber rings.

Probably depends how many times you reuse it and how you care for it between starts. I would think replacing the actual seed cups a good idea for cleanliness alone but the heat mat will keep working for many uses.

You should be able to match up the old one at a local hardware store with a replacement. It would be where they have the rubber o-rings.

The are disposable, but you can shake them clean and reuse them a few times before they have to be replaced.

I would try an o-ring (same diameter as the old one) from Home Depot or Lowes. Probably the most cost effective place to purchase replacement "rubber bands." Good luck.

I don't recall having a problem with the rubber ring. My problem was with the juices getting behind the plastic lining of the base and not being able to clean it out.

You reuse the existing, at least when I ordered these a few years ago you needed to reuse the original fasteners.

They definitely don't need to be replaced every use. They're a pretty heavy silicone-type material.

Yes, you can! It's flexible plastic/rubber and can be pulled off. Just grab the ring and give it a good pull. It can be put back on later if you change your mind.

We reused them. You can't reuse them A LOT but if you are careful you can get 2-3 times out of them

The rings are rubber. I don't think they are pliable enough that they would seal a used metal lid.

I have just wash the pad over and over and have not needed to replace and I haven't needed to replace any parts sorry that i can't help you answer your question

Before the reinstall, I put lithium grease on the rubber. Have not had any problems with the units.

I think so. I seem to recall installing it with new rings, and I'm sure I didn't buy them separately.

The bags are reusable and don't need to be replaced. We clean them after every use by emptying them, then spraying them, and letting them dry out. There are two different types- one is more mesh for leaves, and one catches all fine particles, we use the second.

Yes, there are actually rubber plugs that can be removed and replaced at a later date.

It's rubber with a threaded bolt inside so technically, yes, it can be replaced.
