Except that the Siloflex equivalency rules allow other materials to be the 
equivalent of either 100 psi or 160 psi Siloflex -- so why allow equivalent 
materials at that psi but not siloflex itself?

(from 
<http://www.sca.org/officers/marshal/combat/archery/siloflex_equivalent.pdf)

Siloflex Equivalents
1. Be manufactured to ASTM D2239 or ASTM D2737 Standards.
2. Be manufactured from PE3408
3. Be sized as 1" ID if D2239, or 1-1/4" OD if D2737
4. Have a SIDR rating of 15 or lower (typically 100PSI or heavier pipe) or 
have a SODR rating of 17 or lower (typically 100PSI or heavier pipe)
5. Must be 100, 160 or 200 psi
These guidelines will allow pipe to be used from a variety of manufacters...

Is this document no/no longer official, or has something else changed?
