I spent a time working with high pressure vessels and testing them to assure the welding was good. High pressure and metal parts can lead to shrapnel, so please be sure that if you are working with pressure that some form of containment is used so that in the even of a part failing and becoming shrapnel, it won't hit anything of value, which in this case is you! Jeff - while we were pressure testing at 10,000 psi, the principles of failure are the same, fragments of material sent out at very high velocity -----Original Message----- I use water pressure to push the pistons out of brake calipers. Our water pressure here in my basement is ~100 psi, which is enough for this job if the ... What I've needed was a way to boost the water pressure here by a factor of 3 to 5 so that I could be assured of success with minimal difficulty. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Shameless link for search engines: http://listarchive.type3.org ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
