Selection of gaskets

With a working pressure of 0.8 MPa, we recommend using reinforced graphite composite sheets for verification, while the owner suggests using PTFE gaskets. I also consulted the gasket manufacturer by phone, and they recommended using PTFE gaskets. I would like to ask everyone here for some advice; thank you very much
Not to mention the high cost of PTFE gaskets, their maximum pressure tolerance is only 5 MPA – so how could that company recommend the use of PTFE gaskets? I’m not sure which gasket you ended up choosing, my friend. If you went with a PTFE gasket, how is the project progressing now? Be sure to conduct a pressure test after installation
I would like to know too; could any friend recommend one? How about NBR?
Tetrafluoro gaskets work fine. The methanol gaskets used in our company are also made from this material; they perform well, and it’s possible to manufacture gaskets on one’s own
