Isn't that way too much in terms of %? I feel like that would erode any rubber on my machine.

I've never had an issue in 2+ decades, I have T-shirts that are 10 years old and still in good shape. What really kills clothes is the dryer, I try to line dry everything for that reason.

And the only washing machine I've had to replace was due to an electronics failure, the seals were fine 😊
