I work for a large lansdcaping company, and we get out pipe in 20' lengths....at the end of one end is always a bell. I like the belled end because its just one less solvent weld to possibly fail! Pipe is Certified 220PSI.... I know my stuff when it comes to pressure rating...next one will be with CLass 315psi pipe!

All fittings are Spears or lassco Pressure rated Sch40 fittings.

am finding that i do need to very much shorten the hose like you guys said. I am actually thinking i am going to use a 3/4 orbit and solenoid dump for the pilot on the 2".
Or you could add a ball valve for really nice flow
really good quote/phrase here
