The California Air Tools 8010 is a portable, oil-free air compressor that boasts a noise level of only 60 dB. Its quiet operation is perfect for indoor projects, including air brushing, brad nailing/stapling, hobby painting, spraying and more. It runs on a powerful 1.0 HP motor, which produces less noise and wear by operating at just 1680 RPM. The oil-free dual piston pump system is engineered for high performance and durability. This pump is designed to have a life cycle before wear of more than 3,000 hours compared to other comparable air compressors with life cycles of 500 hours or less. The oil-free pump allows for use in a variety of temperatures and uneven terrains. The large 8.0 gal. steel air tank is lightweight at 48 lbs., and the wheel kit makes it very easy to transport.
