I am new to compressors. I have a 12 gallon craftsman air compressor that we picked up at a garage sale. The previous muffler/air filter fit in the palm of your hand and allowed a lot of noise to escape out of the pump. This unit is much larger than the stock unit and removed a lot of the unwanted noise. The noise now has more bass rather than the previous extremely loud tinny noise.

The underside of the unit has 3 holes were the air enters, the holes have pipes that enter the inside of the unit. To lower the noise further, sound dampening material could be added inside the unit and plastic tubes could be extended on the outside of the unit as are seen on other smaller mufflers. The diameter of the included filter element is about half the outside diameter, this allows for space for the inside 3 air pipes.

I was concerned about the cover being plastic, but it turned out to not be an issue and I prefer it to the over priced metal ones I saw at the hardware store. The base and the screw in pipe are both metal.

Additionally, it's bigger than you think, with a size of about a saucer, so you need to think about the space available on your unit. Also, make sure you get the correct pipe screw-in size, there are a few web pages that helped me order the correct size/thread type. If you mess the this up, take the original and this unit to your hardware store, they should be able to help you with a conversion piece.

I highly recommend this unit if you want to cut down on unwanted noise.

Quieted up my frankensteined compressor setup (various hand-me-downs, not pretty, but highly functional) a decent bit. Pretty large, so some black 1/2" pipe and some fittings were needed to move it a bit. May move a bit further away to quiet the entire machine down when it is permanently installed in my workshop.
