	Are you a valve manufacturer? If you are (no doubt), why should anyone give you a free answer? The reason you are in business is to develop your own products.

	Just go by a gas grill and reverse engineer the regulator. __________________ Si vis pacem, para bellum

	ignore the other replies.... For LPG which contains Butane, natural rubber should not be used, as it will be attacked and perish. You will need a special plastic compound as butane is extremely 'hard' on plastics, I think Viton is the material of choice but please check with a pneumatic supplier of valves for use with butane and propane. __________________ A little knowledge is a dangerous thing - Googling is far worse!

	No, you should not use re-rubber, you should use either teflon (PTFE) or viton. Please check with supplier for alternatives. __________________ Always learning

	Nitrile is a good rated product for compatability. __________________ Dont get on to the roundabout if you dont know how to get off
