    Braided hose pressures

    Does anyone know how much pressure a braided hose can take. I stumbled across a spair hpa tank so i would like to run one of my older toys off of it instead of co2.

    Stainless Steel braided right? I was running over 900 psi thru one before. I think they can hold several thousand, but if you were running it to a gun out of a regulated tank I can't imagine ever needing or being able to run over 1000 psi. anyway.

      help

      sorry dont hold me to this but i believe ss braided hoses can sustain somewhere around 3000 psi. you could probably find out quicker if you searched around on google or something. however my macroline (no brand name) easily sustains 900 psi so if thats all you need you could go with that.

        I don't remember, but my non-braided remote hose is rated at 3000 psi. I think the ss-braided was something like 10,000 psi, but I AM NOT SURE.

            Most stainless steel hose is rated to 3000psi. You can have some custom made to higher pressures.
