    Post Cork vs. Rubber Gasket in Perko Strainers

    Hi All,

    I have a 493 - 3/4" Perko water strainer (1990) for my AC. I am replacing the cork gaskets. I received the correct size gaskets but wrong material- rubber. My strainers have cork gaskets. I noticed the rubber gaskets fit perfectly....no leaks! I called Perko and was informed that even though the rubber gaskets fit, you MUST use the cork gaskets! Anyone have a clue as to why?

    Thanks,
    Jim M.
