if it dosen't need fixed, break it

Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | If it helps, the McMaster Carr catalog gives the max pressures for regular steel brake line as 6,000 psi for 3/16" and 4,500 psi for 1/4". I don't know if this is max working pressure with what factor of safety, or burst pressure, but it may get you in the ball park so to speak.
What are you planning to do?
