I have been looking for o-ring sizes for my cartomizer tank. I saw somewhere on this forum that someone used Buna-n o-rings. I just looked at these and they say they are not resistant to glycol based brake fluids. And what are PG and VG? well PG is a glycol and VG is a triol (I'm sure you can assume it has similar properties to the glycol) So these o-ring appear to be inappropriate from the beginning.
That is all, any chemists out there to agree with me?

I'm gonna have to say that's brake fluid might be just a little bit more corrosive and acidic than the PG and vg. The brake fluid might make those swell up. Best bet would probably be to either contact the company and ask or, pull the trigger. Test it yourself. I want to know the outcome. Test it in a petri dish type science experiment before you decide to vape with them tho, don't need to inhale rubber, leave that for the drag strip.......
