What material of gasket would be good for steel braided hose that will be transporting Styrene? I am transporting Styrene from a tank to a heat exchanger to cool it.

What type connections? Quick connect, dry disconnect, screwed, flanged, etc? If quick connect or dry disconnect, what is offered as choices?

When I worked with stryene in the past, we always used Viton gaskets.

For any members with gasket queries, I thought the following resources maybe of interest:


A general guide to gasket design.


A guide to gasket materials and their properties.


A guide to gasket chemical resistance.


A guide to gasket fitting.
