What thickness are you referring to?
Edit: Square inch, does this go for burst pressure also?
cool, plus the volume's marked so you can even see how much air you're putting in Very Happy
I just got that

When you fill your car with refined oil remember that it has been paid for with blood and guts, some from your own countrymen, most not.

I would highly advise against using one of those for a pneumatic chamber. I had one that got some nasty stuff crusted in the bottom of it, so I blew it up. I globbed epoxy all over the threads, screwed on the top really tightly, tapped a 20 foot hose into it, and pumped air in from the hose until it blew. It only took about 80 psi and shards flew all over my yard.
It'll work for a basic combustion, but I wouldn't go more high tech than that.

Where did you tap in at in the bottle or in the cap??
Yea, that's definitely going to get you at least a tazer.

He did it!
Now we know we cant use em until 80PSI (well, actually BELOW 80psi introducing a safety margin)
