The Chewnoodle component is made up of a non toxic silicone tube, eight inches in length and 1/2 inch in diameter. It is attached to a light-weight aluminum carabiner. The carabiner can be clipped on to the shirt for easy access, the pant belt loop, or the strap of a bag to reduce risk of being lost. The Chewnoodle's silicone tube is made from non toxic FDA approved materials. It contains no sulfur or other acid-producing chemicals, thereby eliminating the possibility of staining, corroding, or deteriorating materials it contacts. It is very resilient and stretchable, therefore making the material a perfect tool for chewing needs. Top rack dishwasher safe.
