Air compressor tool kit

[DanEng]

Hello,

I am searching for a good quality air compressor tool kit; spiral hose, tyre inflation gauge, blow gun, and spray gun. Any suggestions, please?
I am only finding the usual cheap ones.

I went through the same thing. IMO the best way to go for "good quality air compressor tool kit" is to buy the items individually. That's what I did many years ago, and I think it pertains to today as well.

Yes I am considering buying the items individually as well. Any brands in particular?

From what i have ever seen is the kits and spiral hoses are all cheap

As far as all purpose blow gun a basic cheap blow gun with a thumb lever is hard to beat. I'm not sure there is a big difference in brands (I think one of mine is a Neiko) they usually come with a few tips. I leave the rubber tip on it.
Have the same unit with a long extension that works well for blowing off my mower.

A pistol grip with a venturi air multiplier nozzle works well for some tasks, like blowing off my clothes.
Also the pencil style can be handy in tight areas.

I've never seen a high quality coiled hose.

Milton still sells good quality recoil hoses made in Canada. I have also seen unbranded Canadian-made recoil hoses at NAPA and other parts stores. I would avoid nylon (which is what's typically included in "kits").

Milton also makes good inflators and air chucks.

Parker makes a variety of nice blow guns made in the USA and Germany.

Thanks for the info. I will look into Milton and Parker.

I am checking on Hazet. Many of their tools are made in Germany, but I do not know about their air tools.
