How things are made so we looked at how hot dogs are made and that was pretty
I thought it was a lie. You know what's inside
Yeah, it looked like it was coming out of a sewage pipe
And I never knew that when I was eating hot dogs, but in this episode. We're doing how rubber bands are made originally
I'm like rubber bands that doesn't seem that interesting right well before you click away. You're gonna be pretty amazed because it looks pretty
Spectacular you're watching Reaction Time, let's get right into it
Let's find out how rubber bands are made by the way the original video is in the description. First link if you wanna check it out
Okay, so apparently that's actually the rubber bands correct me if I'm wrong
But this looks like those uh lasagna pasta, the pasta dough lasagna dough before they cut it up
Even has the same color
Especially when they cut it that just looks like dough
what and its stcky
Whaaaaat? now it looks like spaghetti, little spaghetti strands
Cannoli's thats cannoli's right there
Who else thinks this looks edible
Cuz I do, this actually looks really good. Just looks like dough like pasta think I said that like twice
The kneading process generates heat which softens the rubber making it easier to form into dough
So this whole time this is rubber just keep that in mind it's not dough
Even though he just said they form it into dough, rubber dough!
The kneader spits out rubber dough chunks
Next a giant rolling pin transforms the dough into wide, thin pieces. Looks like you're making pizza
Where's the flour? He slices the strip's and bundles them
In this form it will be easier to control the weight of the rubber in relation to chemicals that are added next
I'm sorry, but that looks so satisfying can we play that back, is that not satisfying?
Oh
Precise amount of sulfur and other chemicals that strengthen the rubber and make it more elastic
Oh now they got the, They got the flour for the pizza. Now they're gonna roll out the pizza, and make it delicious, Mwah!
They then roll the rubber very thin. Thats the most satisfying part right there
Oh, yeah, Sorry, thats nice. A worker twists and cuts it into small bundles that fit into the opening of an extruding machine
Looks like you're making some. Looks like your making some special type of bread, like a baguette, almost.
Still war and malleable rubber through dyes to shape it into long hollow tubes
The extruder injects air and talcum powder into the tubes to keep the walls from collapsing and sticking together while warm
The tubes cool down in a trough of water, and they deflate as the injected air dissipates
Next these aluminum poles will serve as molds for the tubes during curing giving them the correct shape and diameter
The worker slides the tubes onto the molds
You know what that looks like let's see if you have a dirty, it's the dirty mind test right here
On reaction time they're putting rubber on tube
Is this not, its like
Uhum, it's like you know those things
They sell at the pharmacies, the CVS stores the (condoms!). Molds the talcum powder
Injected into the tubes during their extrusion. I can never unsee that anymore. Keeping them from sticking to the molds during curing.
They load the tubes into a steam oven and the intense heat vulcanizes the rubber to boost it's tensile strength and elasticity
Out of the oven, workers inject air between the tubes and the molds making it easier to peel the now vulcanized tubes off
That is so cool all right play that back, satisfaction part two. What the~
They rinse the rubber tubes to remove talcum powder residue
There's so much that the water turns milky white. Holy crap
They hang the rubber tubes to drain away some of the water
By the time they're ready to cut they're a bit too dry
So a worker splashes water onto them, with the tubes moistened the next operation will run more smoothly
Mean' to be honest, they look a lot more rubbery now they don't look like a dough so we got the bends rubber bands
He feeds several tubes at once to a rotating blade which carves them
This creates elastic bands that are exactly the same, width
In this case that's 1.5 millimeters. ~What the heck, this is like try not to get satisfied.
Is this in slow-mo?
That was is slow motion, oh my. They can buy half a million rubber bands in an hour. Oh my god
What about the colored rubber bands? I wanna see those... For the inventory to pile up
Jesus!
That was beautiful, Look at that photo
Imagine just going in there jumping in there diving into those bands, those rubber bands, that looks so amazing guys
But this was how rubber bands are made that was the process
No it was really dough, it's just rubber
But if you were curious now you know and if you want to check out the video for yourself
It's gonna be in the description if you have any other things you want us to review like, like how a pencil is made
Or there's many other interesting stuff
That we never actually know how they're made, go ahead and suggest at reactiontimevideos@gmail.com
It's gonna be right here, and uhm yeah, thank you so much for watching guys. Hopefully you check out the second channel here
I'll see you guys soon. Have a good one and peace out!
