A pressure rating refers to the qualified operating pressure that is recommended for a component or a system by the manufacturer. The pressure rating of 12 schedule 40 steel pipe is 370 psi.
250 PSI WELDED
The fittings THREADED are normally rated for 125 PSI but there are ratings over 3,000 PSI if needed such as high pressure steam applications Then one has to take temperature /pressure relationship into consideration higher temperature greater pressure
10,600 PSI if your using Schedule 120
It depends on the pipe schedule and diameter... For example. Schedule 40 1 Inch pipe has a minimum burst pressure pressure rating of 1440PSI and an operational PSI of 270. Google can provide a complete chart. Just search "PVC Pipes - Pressure Ratings"
1500 psi and 1400 psi
A pressure rating refers to the qualified operating pressure that is recommended for a component or a system by the manufacturer. The pressure rating of 12 schedule 40 steel pipe is 370 psi.
250 PSI WELDED
The answer is yes, if the pressure is below 150-160 psi.
The fittings THREADED are normally rated for 125 PSI but there are ratings over 3,000 PSI if needed such as high pressure steam applications Then one has to take temperature /pressure relationship into consideration higher temperature greater pressure
Is this pipe going to be threaded / Grooved or Welded?

Maximum PSI rating is on the outside rating of the pipe
If the pressure exceeds the normal rating of the fittings and valves.. Normally rated for 125 PSI
PN is pressure nominal. The number following is in bar = 14.5 psi/bar.
The pressure is important but so is the substance which the pipe is to carry. Is the substance carried at 76 psi or is that the external pressure
