Milton 1019 3/8" Filter

Milton 1019 3/8' Filter
  • LUBRIMATIC" MICRO FILTER
  • 3/8" NPT
  • Standard 40 micron porous bronze element
  • Three stage baffle
  • Plastic bowl

I was looking for a basic air line filter and this unit seemed to fit the bill. What I didn't realize until after I received the filters is that this filter has a "self drain" feature. The drain valve has a rubber piece that relaxes when the air pressure falls below 5 PSI (according to instructions) so beware! I never installed these units. I didn't like the idea that they would "dribble" all over my work bench and floor when the air pressure is drained from the lines, which I do regularly in my work shop. I bought the Campbell Hausfeld unit Campbell Hausfeld PA2121 Standard Air Filters instead and am happy with that unit. The Campbell Hausfeld unit appears to be the same as the Husky unit sold by Home depot. If you like black instead of blue check out the Husky unit as Home Depot. Sorry Amazon I love you more than Home Depot but I got to be honest. LOL

Sharpe 6760 DryAire Dessicant Air Filter System

Sharpe 6760 DryAire Dessicant Air Filter System
  • System maintains a -40deg F dew point while achieving 0% compressed air humidity
  • Coalescer that removes oil and sub-micron particles down to .01 microns
  • Provides maximum filtration capacity of 30 CFM @ 175 PSI
  • Silica gel provides maximum moisture absorption with easy desiccant changeout
  • Dessicant can be regenerated or replaced

This product shipped in a beautiful styro molded box. Arrived in great shape. It's mounted on the wall, hooked up, and keeps the air and oil from the air supply going to my equipment as advertised. The one thing that I wish they did differently is the bracket that holds this to the wall is a little flimsy. The three canisters with all the fittings are a little heavy for the tiny bracket around the center canister. I had to add an additional strap support twixt the large right canister and the regulator to keep it from listing to starboard.

Also, it would be nice to have a filter wrench thrown in so you can access the contents when necessary.

Other than these little nags the product is sturdy, well built and I expect to get years of use from it.

I needed this for application of a special firearm finish. It was recommended to me by my local paint supply store, who also uses it, and I got it here for a lot less than $700 they were asking at the shop. 3-stage filter, cleans /very/ easily. All it takes is some elbow grease to unscrew the canisters and give them a quick shake and a drying out once a week or so. Extremely user friendly.

The added regulator on the end has two 1/4" NPT outlets that are great for hooking up extra hoseI run one to my paint gun and one to my sandblasting cabinet. The screw-valve is a pain to back in and out, but you can control pressure nearly to the pound, up from 5 to 120 PSI. I've run it for two months now without so much as a hiccough.

Don't use this by itselfyou still need a good 15' of iron pipe to let the air cool and condense. If you try and run this straight from your compressor, especially for extended periods, you'll have to empty out the big canister and de-hydrate your dessicant beads. Which, again, not terribly difficult, but you might as well prolong their life as much as possible.

I would buy this again, without hesitation. It's definitely worth the extra money to make sure you've got the right equipment for the job. Scrimping and getting one of the cheaper single-stage ones will end up costing you more in the long run due to water and oil content in your end product.

I like it. Seems to filter out everything, I'm new to painting so I can't really say too much. But seems like the air is very clean coming out of it.

Slime COMP06 Pro Power Heavy-Duty 12-Volt Tire Inflator

Slime COMP06 Pro Power Heavy-Duty 12-Volt Tire Inflator
  • Heavy duty 12-volt inflator plugs directly into your cigarette lighter, 15-Amp fuse required
  • Inflates a standard car tire in 3 minutes
  • Features a built-in dial gauge (150 PSI/BAR) and bright LED light
  • 16 ft. green coiled air hose with twist-connect
  • Includes canvas bag and adapters for inflatables, such as sports equipment or pool toys

I'm writing this review because the Amazon description doesn't inform you that you NEED 15 amps to power the device as clearly stated in the owner's manual. Unfortunately, I didn't know this before purchase so when I plugged it into my Honda Pilot which only supplies 10 amps, it didn't work. I called Slime customer service who confirmed that all their products require 15 amps.

Check your car owner's manual to make sure your power socket supplies 15 amps!

I'm giving it 5 stars because the device itself looks very high quality with a nice storage case. Slime customer service was also speedy and helpful. Too bad the Amazon item description was inadequate.

UPDATE: I have since bought the Black & Decker ASI300 Air Station Inflator which works great with my car.

Great carry case, well made, very fast tire inflation, a good buy. Works well on larger SUV type tires. Not a cheesy, cheap compressor.

This pump is far and away superior to a cheaper unit I had been using. I like the coiled air hose and its screw-on connector to the tires and its quick-disconnect connector to the pump. Also, the pump-mounted switches are more substantial than the switch on my old pump, which was on the power cord and had to be replaced. As noted by others, the fabric carrying case does fit the unit snugly, but I've had no difficulty removing or replacing the pump or air hose in the case.

This 'heavy duty' inflator failed after only a few uses. It was typically very slow to inflate my car's tires, but would eventually fill them to the required pressure. At one point, my tire was very low on pressure and the Slime inflator managed to bring it up to pressure after several minutes. After that, however, the unit no longer worked.

Also, for me, having the unit powered by the car's power socket, and not having a 110V alternative, was inconvenient.

I would not buy this unit again.

The Slime tire inflator is exactly what I wanted. I was seeking durability, portability and affordability. I got all three. The inflator is built much better than most tire inflators in the same price range. It is very portable, even including a handy case so it can be stowed neatly in the trunk. For me, the price was right as well.

I added five pounds pressure to each of my Toyota Corolla tires after receiving the unit. Within two to three minutes the additional pressure was reached. Inflating a flat tire may take up to 10 minutes, but that time is much better than using a hand pump!

The Slime also includes additional attachments for basketballs, beach balls, and other inflatables. The tire attachment screws on the valve, which I much prefer over the common clip.

I recommend this product highly -I don't believe you'll be disappointed if you are seeking an affordable, portable tire inflator!
