Collection: Air Compressors & Air Treatment for Workshops
The power behind your tools. Air compressors keep nailers, sanders, sprayers, and grinders running on time. Pair the right compressor with air dryers and filters to protect finishes, bearings, and valves.
Single-Phase Compressors for Serious Shops
Our lineup covers portable, stationary, and quiet compressors for single-phase power. Expect honest CFM ratings at 90 PSI, dependable duty cycles, and rugged pumps built for daily use.
How to Size Your Compressor
-
CFM @ 90 PSI: Match output to your highest-demand tool (or total if used simultaneously).
-
Tank Size: Larger tanks reduce cycling and smooth airflow for spraying/sanding.
-
Duty Cycle: Continuous or high-duty compressors handle longer sessions without overheating.
-
Noise: “Quiet” units and proper placement keep the shop comfortable.
Air Treatment: Dryers, Filters & Regulators
Clean, dry air prevents fisheyes in finishes and protects air tools. Add refrigerated dryers, coalescing filters, and FRLs to stabilize pressure and remove moisture/oil.
Pro Tips for Reliable Air
- Plumb with rigid lines (or quality aluminum systems) and downward drops to drain moisture.
- Use automatic drains on tanks and filters to simplify maintenance.
- Install hose reels near work zones to speed changeovers and reduce trip hazards.
FAQ
How much CFM do I need?
Most nailers use 2–4 CFM; die grinders/sanders 8–12+ CFM. Size to your heaviest tool and add headroom.
Oil-free or oil-lubricated?
Oil-lube pumps last longer and run cooler; oil-free can be lighter and lower maintenance.
Do I need a dryer?
If you spray finishes or run precision tools, a refrigerated dryer and filters are worth it to prevent defects and wear.
Power every station with confidence. Pick your compressor, add a dryer/FRL kit and hose reels—then enjoy consistent pressure all day.
