Ranger Bands are often described as "Rubber bands on steroids". Their use was originally popularized by the military and titled because of the prevalent use by Army Rangers. Compared to a standard rubber band, they are more versatile, durable, and resistant to abrasion and weathering. Below is an accumulating list of many of the uses we've come up with for these ranger bands.
Never-ending List of Uses for Ranger Bands
Seal containers shut tightly like an Altoid tin or Survival Kit in a Can.

Splinting broken fingers.

This list will grow with input from you!
Some more generic uses of ranger bands include binding and fastening basically anything. They can make effective linkage, cordage, and ligature. They can do many of the tasks that standard tape, paracord or bandages can do, and it's essentially free.
Ok, so most of these names were just things we saw on random posts and forums related to ranger bands, but we happened to like some of them. Not everybody appreciates the inclusion of "Ranger" to everything that was used in the military.
