I've always heard that over tightening a gasket can lead to leaks in the future but I've never been told why this is. Would someone explain to me what happens when a gasket is over tightened?
Does it make a difference if it's a rubber gasket vs metal vs cork? How about if it's two flat surfaces vs one flat surface and one surface with a channel for the flexible gasket?
Thanks!
