"One cannot reliably generalize because different samples of the same batch
vary significantly."
Not only do the physical properties vary, but the strip thickness varies,
possibly more. Yet I rarely see strip thickness mentioned. When I see reports
of rubber delivering more turns, but lower torque, or more torque, but fewer
turns than expected, I suspect the difference is due to strip thickness.
Measure both width and thickness and compare rubber on a cross sectional basis.
Adjust width or strand numbers as needed to get comparable results.
