Why aren cuts made at even higher pressures?

While it is technically possible to make equipment that can achieve pressures beyond 100,000 psi, there are fatigue limits to consider. This limits the practical range of pressures to be below 60,000 psi (414,000 kPa). Anything higher, and reliability drops very fast. For this reason, OMAX pumps all operate at below 60,000 psi (414,000 kPa).
