Consider the possibility that the epoxy may crack under multiple pressure cycles. The aluminum parts may have more yield than the epoxy/fiber parts. Clean and treat the metal parts carefully where the epoxy/fiber bonds to it. I'd take one unit to multiple cycles and see where failure occurs (if it happens). Consider this a 'fatigue life' on the second unit. Why glass filled? You trying to save mass? ;-> Wouldn't the unfilled stuff be stronger?
