Answer:

boilers are made from plate not tube.. large plates are rolled welded by coded welders....tube coming out of the boilers are purchased from tube manufacturers..they are made to meet the standard....... steam is a funny beast...200psi doesnt seem like much.. if your talking compressed air your local hardware shop can sell you a compressor that would pump that sort of pressure..... HOWEVER steam is different..ever poped the top of a hot car radiator......they run at about 10 psi...multiply that effect by 20 you get the idea with steam...200 psi will cut your body in half....but its OK you wont bleed..It corterizes as it goes through.. NOT STUFF TO BE FOOLED AROUND WITH..boiler explosions can take out a city block or two..
