GekkoGum holds devices with a maximum weight of 7.0 oz (200 grams), and it’s made of a rubber compound without hazardous properties–according to the folks at GekkoGum. Plus, they say it’s odorless, free of grease, and won’t stick to your fingers. GekkoGum can be cleaned with fresh water to remove superficial dirt and keeps its characteristics for many years (no aging, embrittlement or shrinkage). The one thing it doesn’t stick to? Silicone.
