Macroline pressure question...

[MinimagRockin']

How much pressure can a macroline handle?

[ignatz]

I have an AirAmerica Apoc. that is adjustable from 200-1200 psi. that I just sent into have service because it blew a piece of Macro line. I can't be sure of what the actual pressure rating is, but I won't run anything over about 1000 PSI again.

It really depends on the macroline. The Parker stuff can handle pretty high pressure, but I've seen some with working pressures of 4-500psi.

i "THINK" dont trust me on this :D but 1500psi is the burst pressure

[AzNGuNSmokE]

Some stuff I bought at Skyball is rated at 800WP and a burst of 1600PSI. But I got some cheap stuff from a parker dealer that only handles 400-500. And some high quality parker stuff that ran 900PSI no problem. So it all depends on what brand and quality.

... when you've had a macro line "burst" in the past where exactly did it fail? (this question is directed toward anyone)

[Demobilized]

Mine burst twice in the same day around the top about an inch or less from entering the fitting.

Kevmaster tested the Parker to 1400 before the fitting blew.

i think it depends on thickness of the plastic. i have have heard standard macro is 850psi and micro is 1000psi.

i don't know about the fittings.
