    Macroline? Microline/

    I'm confused again. What's the difference between macroline and microline? I know they have different sizes, but which is which?

    I think macro is the big thick stuff and micro is well micro.

        You still don't know what you need. Search the forum for the various discussions about the dangers of using inadequately rated components.

        Make sure the line you use is rated for the working pressure that it will be subjected to.

          and never overpresure read the writing on the line your presure should be 500psi or more less then what the lines maximum pressure so if the line says 3000 psi you should not put anymore then 2500psi into it just because it says 3000 does not mean it will hold 3000 trust me i have tested lines and most never hold up to the amount they say

          and if you want proof i have proof about 15 macro lines that bursted before there maximum pressure amd most are from namebrand companys which i will not name because i have already written them about it and i dont want them to loose customers

            There's no such thing as "maximum pressure". Hoses and fittings are rated with "working pressure" (WP) and "burst pressure" (BP).

            The pressure you use should never be higher than the WP.
