Compressor questions

   / Compressor questions #11  
My 60 gallon tank air compressor bit the dust a while ago. I replaced it with a Husky brand 80 gallon tank. Got it from Home Depot. For general garage use of air tools a 60 gallon tank compressor will get you by just fine. I used mine for about 30 years before the tank rusted out. I went with the 80 gallon unit to have a little more reserve when for using a sandblaster. The 60 gallon couldn't recover fast enough and had to stop often and let it build up pressure. You'll need the higher CFM unit for an impact gun.
Use 220V if possible, it will cost less to run. I have my pressure set for 140-150 and mine came with a built in regulator for reducing pressure to two ports. That is real handy for using my paint spray gun.
