I've been using them for a couple of weeks now.   Easy to apply
(compared to plastiands) runs perfectly in DC300-600 sized cartridges.

Just done a bunch of SLR3 Magnus carts--no problems, even in an SLR5
drive (higher speed).

The 145mm size is about perfect for the job and the 5mm width is also
just right.

It helps to stretch them a bit before applying, but then I do that with
Plastibands.
