Actually the guy couldnt find it. He says he *thinks* its 800. And I put some more on there and its been working all week, but the first blew up. I just have to try the nylon, which im 100% will work.

well plz let us know! cuz 15 bux for 2 feet and 2 fittings is a lil steep

Well, im not selling fittings. Just the hose. Its gonna be something like 5-10 dollars for 5-10 feet. Not sure about prices, but something in that price range.

Have you tried the nylon hose yet?
If so, how's it holding up?

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

yea i'm starting to wonder where you went. can you give us an update on what is going on?

[-=Squid=-]

Ive gone nowhere. I talked to him and im going tomorrow to pick up the nylon. However, Im begginning to wonder igf the polyurethane wasnt a fluke because I have been using it for over a week under constant preassure and it works fine. Im just not sure what to do... I know its "safe" but I dont want to sell it and then start getting complaints. I will talk to him about it when I get home tomorrow.

Good luck cause ill buy like 20 feet for me and my team :)

I will no longer use macroline where I am not certain of the working pressure and ratings. That goes for the fittings also.

For me it just isn't worth the risk anymore. Not all of my equipment has braided hoses but over the course of time I am going to make a move back that way on any of my guns that run over 450psi through the hose. I am also ensuring I only use high quality rated fittings.

A guy in England had a piece of a fitting go through his eye. For me that just isn't worth the risk with anything I am not 100% sure about.

To be honest I've seen so many hoses/fittings fail lately that it's starting to freak me out a bit.

Be safe guys. You are messing with large amounts of energy!

...thank you for scaring the *bleep* out of me :)

[tony3]

oh great why to get me super nervous*puts blanket over head*

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

wait a min...how on earth did the fitting blow up?

[Mossman]

i had a crappy plastic fitting that came with a gun explode into my stomach. I was holding it near my stomach cuz i was just testing it if it would fail, wanted it away from my face. It did. Ouch.

[-=Squid=-]

Why would you use plastic air fittings at that high a pressure?

[RRfireblade]

You all can do what ever,but I just got say, you got to be nuts to buy or sell anything that's a safty issue if your not 110% sure of the specs and intended use.Is an eye really worth $5? It's Macro line people,the stuff is dirt cheap anyway,if saving a buck is that big a deal try 1010-220 for all your long distance needs.
