Looking at my PVHO book it looks like conical windows can have a sealing
surface with an included angle anywhere between 60 and 150 degrees.
This is the included angle meaning your looking at the cross section of the
whole port and these angles are from surface to surface.

Well...... since there doesn't seem to be an over abundance of
discussion, at the moment, of technical matters concerning submersibles will
take it upon myself to ask another question !
I noticed in the picture archives #39 contributed by Rick
Lucertini there are some diagrams of view ports, the conical shaped view port
with the o ring half way between the inside surface and the outside surface is
the design I am planning to use for two of my view ports. Is the angle
on those acrylic view ports 45 degrees or could the angle be less than 45
degrees.
