i just got a set of 215s and the bar is 260 what does that mean?

 

1 bar = 14.5 psi

It is opening pressure or pop off pressure of the injector

260 bar = 3770 psi

 

so does that mean its a higher bar than a normal 215? that good or bad?

 

260bar is what 215 injectors are rated for

 

ok sweet

 

The bar, decibar, centibar, and millibar are defined as:

• 1 bar = 100 kPa (kilopascals) = 1,000,000 dynes per square centimeter (baryes) = 0.987 atm (atmospheres) = 14.5038 psi
• 1 dbar = 0.1 bar = 10 kPa = 100,000 dyn/cm2
• 1 cbar = 0.01 bar = 1 kPa
• 1 mbar = 0.001 bar = 0.1 kPa = 1 hPa (hectopascal) = 1,000 dyn/cm2

Example conversion: 1 atm pressure = 1.01325 bar = 1.01325 x 105 Pa = 1.01325 x
105 N/m2


The word bar has its origin in the Greek word βάρος (baros), meaning weight. Its official symbol is "bar"; the earlier "b" is now deprecated, but still often seen especially in "mb" rather than the proper "mbar" for millibars.
The bar and millibar were introduced by Sir Napier Shaw in 1909 and internationally adopted in 1929.


FYI ...
