PSI question

[SwaintaN]

Might not be right thread, if not, sorry.


I found a few hoses, some will give me the psi rating, some will give me the temperature rating, is there a way to find the psi just from the temp rating? Also is working psi and rated psi the same thing?

Hoses are generally rated according to their designed purpose, such as hydraulic hose being rated for pressure, and coolant hoses being rated for temperature. You can generally use good quality hose for normal pressure and temperature applications, but you want a high rated one when it matters.

Working psi, rated psi, and working rated psi seem to be interchangeable terms when dealing with pressure-rated hoses and tubing.

Will it make a difference if something says get a psi line that is 150 working psi and you put on a 500 working psi?
