API 10000

[racp12]

In thread thread 809-60021, and in some high pressure fitting and valve catalogs, I have read the term "API 10000". I had thought that it was a reference to an API standard, but, I could not find that term in the API website (

http://www.api.org).

My question is: What is API 10000?
