Howdy,
I know absolutely nothing about it, but it seems to be rated at 175psi _at
70 deg_ with only 140 psi at 140 deg. Presumably there's enough safety
factor built in, but in my shop that stuff would see 175psi at as much as
95 deg if it gets really hot out / due to heat from the compressed air.
Still, its attractive to me from an ease of assembly / modification
standpoint. Copper is what I was going to use when I finally upgraded
from my redneck "manifold and a lot of rubber air lines" system I have
today. :-)
