Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Gentlemen and others,
I am reviving this thread about Minimum Barrel Wall Thickness because that question was asked elsewhere. If you are wondering about minimum barrel wall thickness please read this entire thread for a quick but solid education on the subject!
Mark

We do have more information now that the tensile strength of both pattern welded and fluid steel has been reported. Short version is here
