    what will be the advantage of Nitril Rubber Disc against metal (Bronze) disc.
    i wonder why people go for rubber disc instead of metal. is it because to avoid hammering sound…what about the temp any concern over that….so please avoide this type of confusing spec. crane has this product ok but is it advicable for projects where normal water temp some times goes up to 40 degree C.
