Leaking uniseal

[Realdeal]

I’m trying to setup a recirculating dwc system. The uniseals are leaking, is there a good sealant I can use to stop the leaks.

That's a bummer. I'm guessing that a silicone for the bathroom would do the trick.

Yeah silicone would work, I used Flex Seal and also rubber cement. Anything rubbery with a good bond and preferably waterproof. Just make sure you give it a good coat on both sides, whatever you use.

Go to bulk head fittings way better and no leaks

I was originally going to use bulk head fittings, but then I read on another forum that uniseals are easier to use and don’t leak.
Live and learn I guess

Been there done that and it don't get much easier than bulkhead fittings

There is this stuff called Marine Goop which works great.

And +1 bulkheads but they're not perfect. I used bulkheads and had to use a bit of Marine Goop to patch some small leaks where I guess the bulkhead gasket wasnt totally flush or something.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up using permatex sealant. So far no leaks.
