For years, we've just used Sch. 40 on high pressure portions of standpipes, but I got to wondering about what sprinkler piping is actually rated for. Just off the phone with Allied, and their listed Sch. 10 and 40 both rated 300psi. So if I can use Sch. 10 up to 300, my little brain goes on to reason that 40 should get me higher, but then perhaps not. What about 80? Do we have to go seamless to get higher still? I'm looking for documented, listed, approved, underwritten ... more than just an anecdotal citation.
