Why are the threads G 1/8 and 1/8 NPT offered for pressures only to a nominal pressure range of 400 bar? Where does this limit come from?
Basically, Honored is very simple: From the certain pressure limit, the thread flanks are no longer ?strong? enough to resist the force of the applied pressure. If the pressure is too much, there is a threat of shearing for the thread. By the way, the pressure limits come from DIN EN 837-1.
Attention: The maximum pressure up to which a thread may be used depends not only on the thread diameter, but additionally on the selected sealing type and the material of the counter-thread.
