Someone had mixed the sch30 in the sch 40 pile, still my fault for not double checking. Luckily no injuries.

Not really sure. It can handle all my 5hp shop compressor can push in it, 165psi. I need to get a scuba tank and test it.

make sure you get a reg on that scuba tank they have 3000psi in them(you probably know that but just makin sure)

Yeah, I will use a reg from one of the argon tanks on the welders. I do appreciate any saftey tip wether I know it or not. High psi is extremely dangerous, even if everything is 100%.
