Silicone gaskets

Does anyone know if these gaskets are ok to use between the boiler and column?

Hi Shotchas,

I can't vouch for that particular brand. But I do use one that looks identical to that one and fits the same description (sanitary silicon gasket). I also use it to attach my bubble plate column to the keg boiler. Have not had any problems with it.

It's the wrong size. i bought one of those and it's too small.

Yeah, after reading a bit more it seems like the baking sheets would be a better option.
Thanks guys.
