These things are the bees knees
They work well enough that I don't ever consider using masking tape on my ultralight builds or fly rod builds ever again. Using two bands per guide usually keeps it in place without trying to twist out of the band.
Change the name to Magic bands! After using the first to get the "trick" of it, enjoy these much more than slicing tubing.
I'm only using on CRB blanks right now, but what a treat!
These really aid in holding small micro guides and for test loading a rod for guide spacing. They are a bit of a paint to get a guide under once you roll them on, so I found a plastic flosser very helpful. These are orthodontic bands for braces but stretch enough to be rolled down even a 7wt fly blank.
I use a combination of these micro bands and guide tubing to layout guides. Both are very handy to keep on hand.
These are life savers when wrapping micro guides!
Try using an electric (no-drip) glue gun and the polymer tip adhesive
when cementing the guide feet to the rod.
This will allow using one type of cement for the tips and guides and a no-drip glue gun will allow
putting just a spot of glue where it's desired, on the rod and not all over your bench. Give it a try, it works for me, might work for you!
One of the best things you can buy they guides on very firmly the are a little loose on some ice rods though
These things are better than sliced bread!!
Great for smaller guides for bigger guides they have the tubing that comes in different ID.

These micro bands are an absolute lifesaver using smaller guides that have tiny feet
Beats trying to use tiny amounts of tape or glue before wrapping
Sometimes a second one nearing the tip is helpful to get it to sit flush
I use these on my UL and light builds. Do a nice job of holding guides in place for wrapping.
Work great

Love these much better than using masking tape
These little things work great for small eyes.
Great product !
These bands are perfect for small diameter blanks such as ice rods. These make setting small guides much easier than with masking tape!
This bands are awesome. They really helped me when using micro guides. I started out using tape to hold my guides but once I got these it made things so much easier. At first, I thought they would break to easy but after using them these things are strong. I recommend these to anyone using smaller guides.
