Viton for use with glyphosphates (roundup herbicide)?

(OP)
Does anyone on the forum know if VITON elastomers are suitable for use with glyphosphates (Roundup herbicide)? If so, is it the only acceptable material for items such as pump seals and gaskets?

When ever I meet a problem like this I usually go to the manufacturers and ask their productionengineers if they have relevant experience - - having made it they know more about how to handle it.  Next step is to find out whats in there and study the resistance tables and have a good guess.Failing all else, set up a spare parts Depot to replace whatever rubber items will fail.
