RE: GASKET COMPATIBILITY
in order of suitability:
Furon
PTFE coated rubber
Goretex
Viton
hope this helps.
RE: GASKET COMPATIBILITY
Viton or NBR might be okay.
If you use rubber with a PTFE around it, please note that the PTFE will deform when pressed together, so it can not be used for connections that need to be opened every now and then.
