Test dates

[TOOLE]

Hey all, just made the transition over to air (finaly!) and just got my bottle, it's a stainless steel 3000psi bottle, that was made in '99 (march). I think it is a 5 year gap between tests for these bottles. am i right?

Thanks mate
p.s. i am using a braided hose at 600psi, is this safe?

 

[Tom Allen]

Hard to say, there are so many different braided hoses about.

Usually a braided hose supplied with paintball products, will cope with that pressure.

cool, it is a paintball one, nicked it from a JT 5.0, put it on me angel!

Unfortunately it's the same as plastic hose, many different types.
