Yes, but at $160+, it's priced the same or higher than a complete 20 gallon unit when they're on sale. The newer McGraw 20/135 is on coupon now for $175

Husky...now $99. I just might get that. Heavy duty....by no means, but for my purpose....$99 sounds pretty good.
On edit....I take it back, wayyyy to many 1 star reviews.

Impact wrenches could draw a lot of air so check their needs first.

My point was, I didn't know you could buy a cast compressor that cheap, and if you can, why would anyone put up with listening to one of those vibration style compressors?

you really think the rest of the components to make a complete compressor of good quality would be priced the same or less?. you mean THIS?. 2 gallon 1.6 HP 135 PSI Oil Lube Vertical Air Compressor it don't come anywhere near close to making your own. compare the SCFM and also, notice the McGraw unit is a direct drive unit..

You can't compare the thinking of someone that wants to own the cheapest of everything, compared to someone that appreciates good stuff. Often the cheap stuff is a better deal anyway, especially if bought gently used.

OP wants a cheap qwikee to air up tires and pfftzz a few nails once in a while. He ain't running a full diesel repair facility.

he wants it for "tires, impact wrenches, blow gun etc." not something for a cheapo pancake compressor that is extremely loud, and won't put out enough air anyway..
