    Regulator, filter, desiccant filter. Which order for air lines?

    Well not to jumpstart an old thread but my regs after my filter fwiw & I never understood why so many are sold assembled opposite? Really I wanted to mention I read many yrs ago to install them 25ft from your tank to allow the air to cool a bit? But idk how much or if it even matters really...

    What size mag starter for compressor.

    Sorry if this was covered, I didn't see this even with so much discussed here. I have a Puma PK-6560V 5hp air compressor, single phase 220. I was looking into Mag starters and read conflicting info over having the on/off "Toggle/Rocker" switch vs not having a Toggle on your Mag for Compressors...

    Sanborn Black Max 80 Gal. Air Compressor - Thoughts?

    Oh my, that dreaded garage corner clean up? I feel your pain. I cleaned out 13 corners for my Puma, pretty sure I only had 4 corners when I built it? Cleaning can get weird fyi?🤔

    Fwiw my cuz has a Sandborn Black Max. He paints cars/cycles all day long & its all he done since 14. He recently told me his max is 28yrs old. I can remember when he got it cause he painted our freinds car for it. It was used when he got it, not long maybe a yr at best? It runs all the time...

    Stupid question..Can you leave your compressor on with sub zero temps outside?

    I didnt mention that, but yes I upgrade my drain valves to 3/8 ball valves. One on my Eagle compressors nearly 20yrs old, its the first thing I upgraded. Its original drain sucked (like most). So far the only bleed off I had is quick connects or leaving an air tool/chuck connected to my...

    My Eagle has been on 24/7 like 20yrs till very recently & it gets below 0 here in the central zone, sits in a unheated detached work shop. I have ran full syn in everything since 2000 though. Its very air tight so unless I forget & leave my air chuck/blowgun, impact gun Etc on the hose end...

    Adding a 220v outlet for air compressor question

    Sounds like my 20gal Eagle porty, has 5hp sticker on side & came with a reg 3 prong HD 115v plug. 🤥 I missed out on that lawsuit cash, guess I didn't have enough money to pay attention.🤑 Mine has the 15 amp (SPL) motor so I knew it was 3hp at best when I bought it, my bro being an electrician...

    Ingersoll Rand compressor motor replacement

    Good to know yours is still rollin strong Joe. I think he's holding out till holidays pass, he expected better from IR & Dewalt too. So many recent negative reviews can't say I blame him. Thanks

    Ingersoll Rand compressor motor replacement

    I see this dates some time back & most bad complaints I read online are older too. My freind saw this same compressor on sale & is considering it for his farm. We see it still carries the same model TS4N5 but anyone know if its ever changed/updated since this thread began? Hopeful thinking 🤔...

    where is the best place to buy bearings?

    Good to know Snips, may even locate a coupon there? 🤑 fwiw: I bought my Wilton vise at Zoro yrs ago with a great coupon discount plus free shipping. Both were huge savings being its so heavy. Just you reminded me how I verified they were approved Wilton sellers first too or were then at...
