    PLA and air pressure. Any advice on thickness for ~100 psi

    Hi,

    I play Airsoft (similar to paintball) and I?m planning on printing an adapter using PLA filament. This adapter will be connected to and HPA tank, that will be adjusted to ~100psi. Will the PLA material sustain that pressure? Any guidance on the thikness of the adapter to be able to sustain that pressure?

    This adapter is a 3in x 2in x 0.5 in. The bottom (0.5in side) will have a quick connect that will be connected to the HPA tank and the top side will have a 5mm hole where the air will come out. Is 3mm wall enough to hold the 100psi inside this capsule?

    Thank you,
