Another great feature of this compressor is the dual coupling system that lets you run two tools at the same time. This compressor has a maximum output of 125 PSI that gives you generous airflow rates of 5.30 CFM at 90 PSI and 6.40 CFM at 40 PSI, all with a low power draw of only 14 amps. As an added bonus, this model also features a long-lasting oil-free, maintenance-free, dual-piston pump that is designed to last more than 3,000 hours. Operating at a low noise level of only 70 dB, this is one of the quietest running air compressors in the industry. If you are looking for an air compressor that won’t give you a headache from the noise of running it, you need to consider the California Air Tools 20 Gallon Steel Tank Air Compressor. And lastly, it’s one of the priciest options on our list. Secondly, it’s equipped with an oil-lubricated belt drive, which requires more maintenance than many other options on our list. It does have large, 10-inch pneumatic wheels to help make it more portable, though.
It’s one of the heaviest on our list, weighing in at 137 pounds. There are a couple of things we don’t like about this unit. It’s also backed by a respectable two-year warranty. It operates at 78 decibels, which is surprisingly quiet, given its capacity. This compressor’s increased capacity makes it one of the most versatile picks on our list, capable of running a wide variety of light- and medium-duty tools and equipment.
It’s capable of providing up to 53 percent more run-time than many other 20-gallon air compressors. With a maximum 200 PSI capacity that delivers impressive airflow rates of 6.2 CFM at 90 PSI and 7.7 CFM at 40 PSI.
Additional features include a low AMP draw that reduces the incidents of tripped breakers at start-up, as well as an oil-free dual-piston pump designed for maintenance-free operation.Ĥ47013-E 1/4" Universal Quick Coupler, Male 181434-7 Pneumatic Nailer Oil 311006-A 1/4" x 1/4" M-Industrial Fitting, 2/pk 181122-A Air Compressor Oil MAC700 2.0 HP* Big Bore™ Air Compressor BA00000372 No-Mar Tip 424769-6 No-Mar Tip 8351P4-9 Inner Tray, SK700 Lasers 424234-5 No-Mar Tip 424867-6 No-Mar Tip MAC320Q Quiet Series 1-1/2 HP, 3 Gallon, Oil-Free, Electric Air Compressor 421658-6 No-Mar Tip 311002-A 1/4" x 1/4" F-Industrial Fitting, 2/pk MAC2400 2.5 HP* Big Bore™ Air Compressor MAC100QK1 Quiet Compact 1 Gallon Air Compressor and Brad Nailer Combo Kit 424121-8 No-Mar Tip 311012-A 3/8" x 1/4" F-Auto Fitting, 2/pk 311010-A 3/8" x 1/4" F-Industrial Fitting, 2/pk 419525-7 No-Mar Tip 311005-A 1/4" x 3/8" F-Auto Fitting, 2/pk 424443-6 No-Mar Tip MAC100Q Quiet Series 1/2 HP, 1 Gallon Compact, Oil-Free, Electric Air Compressor 311004-A 1/4"X1/4" F-Auto, Fitting, 2/pk 424390-1 No-Mar Tip 311016-A 3/8" x 1/4" M-Auto Fitting, 2/pk AC001 Compact Air Compressor 311017-A 3/8" x 3/8" M-Auto Fitting, 2/pk 311003-A 1/4" x 3/8" F-Industrial Fitting, 2/pk 311013-A 3/8" x 3/8" F-Auto Fitting, 2/pk 421444-5 No-Mar Tip MAC5200 3.The DEWALT 20 Gallon Portable Horizontal Electric Air Compressor is a compact and quiet single-stage air compressor that delivers the power of many dual-stage air compressors.
