Pipe ratings are the operating pressures that a pipe can be constantly operated at.
There are a few classes of Plumbing pressures. Schedule 40 black iron is 150 psi class, meaning that the "operating pressures" are 150 psi.
The 300 psi class is the class for most schedule 80 black iron (no seam [welded]).
Each class has it's own fittings at the same ratings. The fittings wont be listed as a schedule just a class or a psi rating.
Other ratings can exceed 3000 psi for hydraulic actuated machinery applications. Again, these classes have there own set of 3000 class fittings which are usually forged instead of cast.
The ratings include a safety factor of 2 and an extra surge allowance of 100 psi for very short term operation. The rating only goes to the yield strength of the pipe not the failure strength, know the difference. So the burst pressures someone else gave as the pressure rating (2700 +psi) is wrong unless the person asking this question was trying to make a "pipe bomb."

What is the pressure rating of 12 schedule 40 steel pipe?
A pressure rating refers to the qualified operating pressure that is recommended for a component or a system by the manufacturer. The pressure rating of 12 schedule 40 steel pipe is 370 psi.
What is the pressure rating for schedule 80 steel pipe?
The 80 in 80 steel pipe indicates its wall thickness; the higher the number, the thicker the pipe. The pressure rating for a 5" schedule 80 steel pipe at 100 degrees Fahrenheit is 1857 psig.
What is the pressure rating for Schedule 10 steel pipe?
The fittings THREADED are normally rated for 125 PSI but there are ratings over 3,000 PSI if needed such as high pressure steam applications Then one has to take temperature /pressure relationship into consideration higher temperature greater pressure

What is the pressure rating of a 2 inch. and a 4 inch schedule 40 carbon steel pipe at 70 degree Fahrenheit?
Schedule 40 welded carbon steel pipe (black) is rated at a working pressure of 150 psi. It should be printed on it. Schedule 80 welded is rated at 300 psi. If U want higher rated piping you must use seamless (not welded) pipe. Hope this helps!
Maximum working pressure sched 40 steel pipe?
A pressure rating refers to the qualified operating pressure which is recommended for a component or a system by the manufacturer. The maximum working pressure of a 12" steel having a schedule of 40 at 100 degrees Fahrenheit is 855 psig.
Does black steel pipe have the same pressure capacity as schedule 40 steel pipe?
What does the schedule have to do with the material as schedule is the wall thickness Schedule 10, 20, 40 80 and 120 (XXH) The Schedule is telling you the wall (INTERNAL) thickness 10, 20 40, 80 and 120 XXH Whether it be steel, brass, galvanized and wrought ` About the pressure capacity, it is not the same because every material such as steel, brass, galvanized or wrought has a different strenght of materials.
