Bands worn out?

Do bands wear out? I am replacing both my dome and base or my 8 year old LBGE. While tightening the bands both started to twist and dig into the ceramic near the bolts. Are the bands salvageable or do they need replaced. The bolts came off with out any flexing or twisting of the bands, hence the confusion. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!

BTFU!

Use a cresent wrench to hold the band ends when you tighten the bolts to stop them from twisting.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas

Thanks. Ended up getting some new bolts as the threads were dinged up... Crescent wrench helped when I was getting them torqued down. New base, dome, fire bowl & handle. Stainless hardware all around.

What happened to base dome and fire bowl

1200°+ on a 3° day this winter. Just now getting around to replacing the cracked parts.
Don't light your egg then hop on a conference call...LBGE
BTFU!

Do you consider it to be the same egg as before?
