Air Compressors

Hi,

Looking to buy an air compressor, particularly for wax oiling/ dinitrol application.

Would also use for air tools i.e impact wrench.

Sealey are doing a 2hp/ 8 bar/ 4.8cfm compressor for just under £200. Model SA5020.

Is this the sort of kit I should be looking at?

Any experiences?

Thanks,

Steve

You need to check the cfm rating of the tools you are likely to use, i was always taught that the comp needs to be 1.5 x the cfm rating of the tools that way you have a safety margin,
