Shelf life of keyboard contact strips for CMK3

How long would you expect replacement key contact strips to last if I buy some as future replacement parts? Stored at room temperature and not squished. Thanks.

The Soft rubber may deteriorate in a number of years sort of due to the same problem that happens to older Speaker Surrounds ? Mel
