Is anybody using anything other than the type of silicone connectors that EC sell that they can recommend?

I've found that, after half a dozen infusions or so, the excess resin begins sticking to them and they tend to start breaking apart. At around £4 each I wondered if there was a good alternative out there that might just have a bit more longevity?

Thanks

Mark

I mostly run the tube in without a connector, except on complex parts with an inlet not being on the flange I use the silicone connectors...did more than 20 infusions with the first...Just rub them in with some Chemical release agent Cool
