And of course everyone is gonna jump in with "do not use PVC, it can
explode and shatter". But you know what -- I've seen it used in
multiple industrial air systems, including a local NASCAR shop (Andy
Petree - I now own his workbench and sandblaster) and never heard of
failures.
I suspect it's kinda like "do not power up your cell phone on the plane,
or it will immediately nose dive into the ground"
