On a Cork Tree the bark is made of cork which has many uses in bottling and insulation. It was living when it was nearest to the water-bearing parts of the trunk.This tree usually grows in areas with a Mediterranean climate, The bark protects the trunk from the sun's heat and also helps to conserve water in lands where water can be in short supply. After several years the cork bark is cut in a special way and peeled in one piece for use in industry and wine bottle corking.The cork is given some years to mature because a certain thickness is required for making bottle corks.

How much force does it take to break a glass SoBe bottle?
I remember a friend had a wine bottle opener that inserted a hollow needle through the cork into the air space above the wine. Then the user worked a small pump above the bottle's cork. As pressure inside the bottle built, the cork began to rise out of the bottle. I had a cork crumble when I tried to use a corkscrew extractor. I attached a longer than normal inflation needle to a tankless air compressor. What was left of the cork popped right out without leaving any crumbled cork in the wine. So, I made a long inflation needle for a bicycle tire pump and tried it out on a new bottle of wine with a full length synthetic cork. The bicycle pump has a pressure gauge. The pressure registered 80 psi. just before the cork began to come out quite speedily. This was a standard glass wine bottle, not a bottle for champagne or sparkling wine. I looked around the Internet and found some have conducted tests and determined a 2 liter (plastic) soft drink bottle will burst around 120 psi. I would think a normal glass wine bottle would be stronger than a plastic 2 liter soft drink bottle.
