Default Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)

Hey Ryan,

psi rating is dependent on temperature, inside diameter, and some other variables. M Type will most likely be adequate for a home shop (250+ psi under most sizes/conditions). As mentioned before, I used K type for a bit more safety margin. Here is a great resource (with lots of pictures!) on all things copper tubing:
