How do other IRLs handle cracked seals while deglycing frozen units...the act of deglycing exposes the unit to air thus the 24 hour expiration. Currently, our component lab will discard the unit if the seal is broken, which seems a tragic waste of rare units, when they would be subject to a 24hr expiration anyway. There should be some way to save rare units rather than discarding them.

What do you mean by "cracked seal"? If the unit itself is cracked, this is significantly different from the reason a unit is originally given a 24 hour outdate.

The seal around the port is cracked, not the unit itself.
