The boiler is a Vaillant and there is a small leak between the outgoing copper pipe and the heat exchanger.
There is an O-ring of an unknown size that should seal but doesn't quite. The result is a few drips onto the boiler, some of which then finds its way to the PCB!
I was considering using silicone sealant, but am concerned over its acidic properties.
There is no desire to split the joint again, though I would like it to stay flexible to an extent as while movement is minimised there is little strain relief on the joint.
What should I be using?
