What is the burst pressure of 1/2" black poly tubing rated for 100psi. I

use it.



I used that stuff for some outdoor water faucets in the garden. All of
it eventually failed (split) at the barb connections. I only run 40 psi
water pressure.

Actually it depends on which stuff he has. The newer poly pipes are
very good especially if he's got gas service rated. It's about all the
gas companies are putting in the ground now days.

That would be HDPE, high density polyethylene, also used for the jacket on
direct bury primary cable.
