“Standard Proof” lead or steel (limited to no larger than 3.25 mm and max. fps 1,300).
Numbers are transducer BAR converted to PSI. Maximum Average (SERVICE) Pressure 740 BAR = 10,733 psi;
Maximum Statistical Individual Pressure
850 BAR = 12,328 psi
Mean PROOF Pressure 930 BAR = 13,489 psi
12g 3” & 3 1/2” “High performance/Superior Proof” Maximum Average (Service) Pressure 1050 BAR = 15,229 psi
Maximum statistical individual pressure 1200 BAR = 17,405 psi
Magnum proof 1320 BAR = 19,145 psi
Both 65 and 70 mm
16g standard is SERVICE 780 BAR or 11,313 psi;
MSIP 900 BAR or 13,053 psi;
PROOF 980 BAR or 14,214 psi.
Both 65 and 70 mm
20g standard is SERVICE 830 BAR or 12,038 psi;
MSIP 950 BAR or 13,779 psi;
PROOF 1040 BAR or 15,084 psi.
(The original chart from 1984 and revised in 2000 indicates 20g PROOF 1080 BAR or 15,664 psi. The number was revised to 1040 BAR 11-2021.)
Spanish Service Loads Pre -
CIP c. 1970
850 kg/cm2 proof = 12,090 psi for a service pressure of 566.6 kg/cm2 or 8060 psi BUT as measured by lead crushers, so by modern piezo transducers the pressure would be
+ 10 - 14% or about 9000 psi
900 kg/cm2 proof = 12,801 for a 600 kg/cm2 = 8534 psi service pressure + 10 – 14% or about 9500 psi
1000 kg/cm2 proof = 14,223 psi for a service load of 9,473 psi + 10 – 14% or about 10,500 psi
1200 kg/cm2 proof = 17,068 psi for a service load of 800 kg/cm2 = 11,380 + 10 – 14% or about 12,500 psi
850 kg/cm2 proof was commonly used for entry level Basque 12/70 guns of the 50's through the early 70's. Better grades carried 900 or 1000 kg/cm2 proof with some 12/70 pigeon guns 1200 kg/cm2.
