Australian air gun pvc pipe specs/rating/psi

[MrCrowley]

the people at my hardware store are into spudguns and crap and it gets me discounts from plumbing merchants!i get pipe at trade price

[Tyro]

cool, So i'm a bit confused here should you tell them or should you not tell them what your making if they ask? It seems a bit like a guess game.
I want some 15bar that sounds like teh shi', is it easy to find?

Will a Pneumatic at 200PSI shoot farther then a Combustion using Hairspray?

[MrCrowley]

a pneumatic at 100psi will easily,15 bar is hard to find, if they ask and you tell them they still have to sell it too you.

Where did you guys get your pressure gauges, Bunnings tell me they dont have any... Supercheap auto only sell these 35$ complex ones with features ill never use...

[wipsomass]

Ebay is good, there around $3 (not including postage)

[Tyro]

umn can someone give ma an idea of how Much PSI you could create with a foot pump?

[mark.f]

The ones I've seen: 6.9 BAR, (100 PSI).

Even then, they tend to fall apart.

I would go for regulated SCUBA air if you plan on these high pressures.

With SCUBA, you can go up to around 204 BAR, (3,000 PSI), with a lower pressure tank, and up to 340 BAR, (5,000 PSI), with a better tank.

Ebays too much of a hassle, I'd prefer a store.

Also whilst I was trying to find a tire valve all i found were these rubber ones that looked similar to this:

[mark.f]

Metal pipe can commonly have ratings up to 3,000 PSI, but threads reduce that rating by half.

[MrCrowley]

[mac]
