There are steel pipes with 10,000 psi in them some unguarded, in certain positions ,,, is this safe
There must be a standard

Normal factors for safety for a hydraulic conductor operating above 2500psi is 4. Burst pressure of the conductor should be 40,000 psi.

The environment around the conductor is controlled by the end user. If there are dangers present which can damage the conductor then naturally the lines should be protected.
