opinions on air compressors
-
Ya.. Generally an average size is roughly 30..
smaller tanks will just kick on more frequent..
but won't take as long to fill up -
We use a 60 somethin and it is more then enough to run big impacts and griders but its too damn loud.
-
60 isn't really portable, 30 is..
-
I was under the impression he was talking about an air compressor for a shop or garage. 30 isnt exactly a treat to lug around either.
-
show me a pic of a 60, I don't remember what we've got back home. It's kinda sized like my fish tank so I think it's a 30 and it does just fine.
-
ya well I figured coming from a 5 gallon, a 30/33 would do just fine & a 33 gal vert. can be used stationary no problem...
And he could save extra cash.. by not going the 60 route..
easier to lug around if needed, but just as easy to leave stationary.. and should for the most part get the job done. -
This will be going in my garage and does not to be portable. I was under the impression that the tank size didn't matter. It was the size(hp) of the compressor that mattered. I thought i read somewhere that for every hp the compressor would flow 4.0 cfm at 90psi.
Can anyone explain this? I will take a look on google also for some more info.
Like i said i don't want to have to but another compressor in the future so i'm not worried about saving money now because i won't in the long run when i have to buy a bigger one.
