Looking to buy a sheet of gasket material so I can make my own gaskets. Has to be compatible with ammonia and iso 68 compressor oil (mineral I believe). Temp range between -20 and 200 Fahrenheit. Thank you.

Try Garlock 2930. R/S uses it for their bonnet gaskets. Garlock's web site can tell you where to buy it.
Then (if you don't have one) buy a gasket cutter. McMaster-Carr #3870A1 or equivalent.
Cut the outside ring first.
Actually, which sheet of gasket material from the McMaster Carr catalogue is good? I was thinking graphite with nitrile binders.
Suggest one of their tech rep's recommends to you.Quote:

I've been using this stuff for years on Ammonia. It's very good but very expensive
The beauty of it is it's very soft & cuts out perfectly

PTFE gaskets are the bomb. Super chemical resistant.
Chloroprene is also a good option for ammonia systems.
