Every time I use a stop end when I turn the water back on I think to my self that’s going to pop off and flood the house. What amount of pressure can they with stand ?
 
Depends on what type of stop end!
If your referring to push fit speedfit is max 12 bar at 20C as water temperature goes up max pressure comes down.
