Not the normal responses I'm used to. Have things changed round here...... to be more like our current national leaders? Something to think about guys n gals as this is our house

Best value? USA CM or Williams

If rpm is reduced on a splash lube pump make certain the rpm does not drop below the mfg’s min recommended rpm. About the only compressor duty motors worth a flip are Baldor.

Both down here would be Xmas come early!!

$200 for a 120 gal @ 200 psi code tank is a you **** steal round these parts. The motor, pump and starter are gravy esp if you expand and move to a larger facility with 3 ph power. For now buy a 1ph air compressor and use the 120 gal tank for a receiver drier and not look back.... other than to...

I've dealt with SO customer support women who I believe would've been capable of finding a replacement in this case.... they have for me in the past for other parts. Don't sell customer service short before giving it a shot or two.

Thar rig would be undersized for your purposes although it might work at it in a pinch. Regardless make sure your old/new tank is an ASME code tank. There will be a small metal plate tack welded to the tank giving info like mfg, mfg date, press@temp... If you use an old tank you prolly need to...
