Estwing's new 5-Gallon Quiet Oil-Free Compressor
The compressor tank provides 50% more useable air than comparable compressors and delivers airflow to power two pneumatic tools.
Estwing, the Rockford, Ill.-based tool company, has introduced the 5-Gallon Quiet Oil-Free Compressor through a licensing agreement with Prime Global Products, Inc., headquartered in the Atlanta area.
Estwing’s 5 Gallon Quiet Oil-Free Compressor operates at 68 dBA. The 1.6 HP (2.5 peak HP) compressor has a maximum PSI rating of 180 with air delivery at 3.8 SCFM. The 14-amp model operates on standard 120V current up to 100 feet.
The 180 max PSI 5-gallon tank provides 50% more useable air than comparable compressors and delivers enough airflow to power two pneumatic tools simultaneously, according to Estwing. The oil-free 4-pole motor provides extended maintenance-free operation making it ideal for use in construction, flooring, finishing or framing jobs.
“With a reputation as solid as Estwing’s, it was our challenge and opportunity to develop a compressor equal to or better than competitors’ models and worthy of the Estwing name,” said Jason Richards, president of U.S. Operations at Prime Global Products, Inc. “The compressor also complements the new line of Estwing pneumatic nailers.”
The tank fills from 0-180 PSI in less than two minutes and cuts in at 135 PSI to maintain consistent air flow. Air delivery SCFM @ 40 PSI is 5.0. Air delivery SCFM @ 90 PSI is 3.8.
At 77 pounds, the compact compressor’s 5-gallon tank and roll cage feature powder-coated steel construction with a ball drain valve at its base and rubber feet to dampen vibration. The quiet compressor features a 3,000-hour long life oil-free pump.
The compressor’s steel control panel has liquid-filled pressure gauges, pressure regulator dial, overload protection shut-off and two, ¼ in. universal quick-connector couplers. The compressor also features in a built-in power cord wrap and a replaceable air filter. An integrated, ergonomically-designed handle at the top of the compressor provides easy transport.
