What is the maximum water pressure ?
What is the maximum water pressure that any T.T. hot or cold water pipes will take when hook up to city water? I know use a pressure regulator. Which I do. Thank you all-:@

The question can't be answered accurately. As Dog Folks posted, it's dependent on the pipe material but also involves fittings, clamps, and the state of all involved.
FWIW, I have a brand new PEX installation with valves rated at min. 150 PSI. I have a steel pressure tank with all fittings made of metal, including braided steel supply lines. I've had the system filled at 80 PSI for days and haven't had any issues.
If you're using a regulator is there an issue with how the water is supplied through the system?
