Speedway 7296 5-Gallon Portable Air Tank

Speedway 7296 5-Gallon Portable Air Tank
  • lightweight and portable with handle for easy transportation
  • Measures 11-3/8" x 9-1/2" x 16"
  • 125 Maximum PSI
  • Air-line shutoff and manual pressure relief valve
  • 3 ft. industrial grade hose and standard tire chuck

I just got this little baby in the mail. $29 and free ship. how can you go wrong? super easy to fill. the gauge seems reliable and rugged. i will say, that it freaked me out the further i pushed the needle towards 125 so i stopped at 100 thinking, irrationally of course, that if it held at 100, i'd go to 125 next time. (seating tires freaks me out too...)

Air Blow Gun w/Safety Nozzle

Air Blow Gun w/Safety NozzleI have installed two out of ten so far. They are definately cheaper than what I am used to, but that is what I paid for. When letting off of the triger, it takes a second for the air to stop. So far this is not a problem. So far it is worth the price I paid.

  • 5 micron element provides maximum filtration
  • Metal bowl-guard protects against impacts
  • Quick release bowl and quarter turn drain for easier use
  • 57 SCFM flow capacity at 90 PSI

The filter that I received it not the same as the picture listed. Although they have the same part number! The one that I received has a large seal ring that must be screwed on to attach the bowl and it is extremal hard to seal!

After reading the reviews, I had my doubts about this filter/separator, but went ahead and installed it inline on a bead blast cabinet, and it actually works quite well. After about 10 minutes of work with the bead blast cabinet, I noticed the reservoir was about half full of condensate. My bead blast cabinet is about 30 ft from the air compressor, this length is long enough to allow the water to fall out of suspension and be removed by the separator. I live in central Louisiana, where it's very humid. The filter/separator did its job by removing the condensate so the blast media wouldn't clump up.

It works great if you can cool the air down. Does what it suppose to do only if installed far enough away from compressor to allow air to cool or installed after compressed air chiller.

I Purchased this filter/water seperater to rid my line of the condensate in my Air lines but it dose not work for that at all. after having in line for weeks now still water running out the hose and none comming out of the valve on the air filter (I live in Cold weather . . . water is eating up my tools if anyone knows of a good product plz let me know thanks)

I needed a filter and regulator combination. This over/under combination reducted space and does an excellent filtering process. I would definitely recommend for use as filter prior to spray painting with controlled psi.

Ingersoll-Rand 2131-THK1 Pneumatic Impact Wrench Tune-Up Kit

Ingersoll-Rand 2131-THK1 Pneumatic Impact Wrench Tune-Up Kit
  • Sold Individually

After 15 years of hard use my IR 2131 impact wrench finally broke, the corners of the anvil rounded off. Got the rebuild kit, installed it in about 10 minutes. Worked great, the only problem was my fault, I failed to pre-lube the anvil where the hammers hit. After several minutes of use it started jamming up. A quick disassemble and thick coat of IR grease and she was back up and running great. I expect another 15 vyears or more out of it! BTW, the kit picyured is a generic kit from IR's website, the 2131-THK1 kit fits the IR2131 with normal length anvil and is different from the picture.

RapidAir Compresed Air Piping System Push-to-Connect Tee Fitting

RapidAir Compresed Air Piping System Push-to-Connect Tee Fitting
  • Three ports to connect nylon tubing
  • Simply push tubing into fitting until seated
  • Tubing can be removed by pushing release ring
  • Molded mounting hole for clean installation appearance

When I installed the RapidAir system in my shop, I did not believe that it could possibly seal. It was simply too easy to install. So, before I installed the drywall, I pressure tested it. To my suprise, not one leak! I even disconnected some of the outlets and reconnected, without cutting the tubing as they recommend, and still no leaks! Unbelieveable product and simple to use. It makes working with PVC seem difficult!

I'm sold!

DEWALT Bare-Tool DC608B 18-Volt Cordless 2-Inch 18 Gauge Brad Nailer (Tool Only, No Battery)

DEWALT Bare-Tool DC608B 18-Volt Cordless 2-Inch 18 Gauge Brad Nailer
  • Engine design allows the tool to work as fast as the end user with consistent nail penetration into both soft and hard joints
  • Sequential operating mode allows for precision placement and the bump operating mode provides the user with production speed.
  • Straight magazine, accepts 18 gauge nails ranging in legths from 5/8-inch to 2-inch
  • Easy access to the nosepiece for the removal of jammed nails without the use of screwdrivers or tool wrenches
  • Part of the XRP DEWALT cordless system contact trip lock-off allows trigger to be disabled when not in use

Where has this puppy been all my life?!

I already had two 18v batteries so I didn't need the whole kit, so this worked out perfectly.

I bought the brads from the local hardware so I could inspect them I'm buying this to make my life easier and collecting a bunch of brads that came apart in shipping is not my idea of easier.

This thing... man I'm kicking myself for not buying it sooner. I had it in my head that this was just a novelty/nice to have item but I can do fine without it for the cost. Was I wrong. I can't express how much easier and faster this is, and leaves a much smaller hole. I've used it on trim (baseboard, casing, etc.) and even to face nail some HARD, thick flooring that I had to replace. Punches through with no problem and you don't have to worry about having room to swing a hammer, or use a countersink, splitting, etc. Hold it up, POP, done.

• Adjustable force

• Lights area when nose is pressed

• Nose has protective rubber piece so as not to mar surface

• As stated, nose piece easily pops apart to fix jams

• Decent balance to it once battery is on

• Easy to load/unload brads

• Basically what I've come to expect from DeWALT

I haven't tried the sequential firing setting yet so I can't comment on it.

What I can say is hold on to this thing, otherwise the brads won't sink properly. In fact, if the nailing surface or the nail gun are not secure when firing the nail won't penetrate properly (may be less of an issue with soft wood). Do some testing before hand to get a good feel for it and to get the depth set right, especially if you're doing something like flooring where you really want it right the first shot. I assume this is the same for any brad nailer, but this is my first so just throwin' it out there for anyone else in the same situation.

Just received my 18V-18 Gauge brad nailer and fired some test nails. What a tool! I've been using the 16 gauge finish nailer for a number of years and love it, too. When I first used the 16 Gauge gun, I called DeWalt to see if they planned an 18 gauge brad nailer and was told it was not in their plans, so I went with the Paslode gas fired gun.

The Paslode isn't a bad gun, but over the years I've had it repaired a number of times, and it's rather finicky about firing every time. It seems like it never fires the first time when you are in an awkward position holding precision pieces just so. The other issue with the Paslode is keeping fresh gas. They tell you to store in a cool place, which is impossible when your tools go with you everywhere and are continuously baked in the Florida sun.

This DeWalt brad nailer has none of those issues. It's a great tool, makes very little noise, and sets nails perfectly according to the variable depth dial. If you do finish carpentry for a living, don't leave home without it. At first look, it will seem rather large, but I can get it in any place that I used to get with my Paslode, or my old Bostitch air gun.

I use the whole line of 18V DeWalt tools (circular saw, jig saw, vacuum, impact driver, hammer drill, cutoff tool, 16G finish nailer)every day, so I invested in the Lithium Ion batteries. The Lithiums are far superior to the XRP batteries in charge time, operating time and longevity, so while I'm offering opinions, I highly recommend them as well.

With this unit, like its big brother the cordless Finish nailer, I don't have the hassle of loading up a compressor and hoses to do a small job. Production use? Not sure. If you wanted to put trim on a bookcase, shelving, etc. this is the unit. A bit bulky compared to pneumatic nailers, but hey, trade off seems worth it. Haven't gotten in to heavy or prolonged use so my review may change if I encounter problems in the future. Home craftsman? Buy it. Light maintenance/furniture refinishing? This will work nicely.

I had planned on buying a compressor and nail gun combo to do some trim work in my dining room and bedroom, and I found this Dewalt cordless nailer while doing some online research. After reading the reviews, I decided that this was what I needed. Since I already have two batteries and a charger from my Dewalt cordless drill, this seemed like a good deal. I couldn't be much happier with my purchase. I had feared that it might be too big and heavy but after using it, it's not a problem. It has plenty of power, battery life is great, it seems very well made, and I don't have to drag out a compressor and hose every time I want to put up some trim. Delivery was quick, and the price from Amazon was excellent. I'm very satisfied.

I think my title says it all.

I have owned the Dewalt nailer for 5-6 months now. I have remodeled our entire second floor including two bathrooms, 3 bedrooms all with base and crown molding and one room with chair molding, using this tool. I opt'd for the upgrade to the lithium ion batteries,(I got the drill driver/impact wrench set)and I love the longevity. I only have two batteries, but with charge times less than 1 hour per, and run times that far exceed that, I have never been without (even using the driver and nailer together).

The only down side to this tool is how silly you will feel for not buying it sooner. Seriously one if my favorite tools ever. I have owned a Bostich and Rigid nailer (corded to compressor) and I will never go back to dragging around a compessor. This tool uses NO cartidges, so you will save big $$ vs most competitors cordless CO2 models.

UPDATE 5-4-12

I have now lent my nailer to two friends, both of whom have gone out and bought one shortly after using mine. I can't say enough good things. I can't believe big box retailers don't carry this product. Congrats to Amazon for scooping up all the sales. This should be in any DIYers aresenal if quaility finishings are important to you.

In hindsite probably shoud have just sent the whole thing back. Its not made in USA but China. I have found some of their stuff OK but they have lousy quality control

It's a good tool ingersoll rand tools are quality tools and I've always had good luck with them I've used this gun a lot since I got it one thing about it though sometimes the hammer sticks even when oiled daily

Considered some cheaper verisons and looked at Northern Tool and Harbour Freight, but this needle scaler is far better built and more substantial. Using it to repair an old combine to working order and it makes rust removal go a whole lot faster.

I have only had for a week and it is working well, if that changes i'll update. I used to clean up rusty parts on a 35 ford body,frame and engine block i'm restoring. There is still some sandblasting to do but I have saved hours and hours of time and money. I recommend you hold at an angl for delicate work and at 90degrees for more aggressive cleaning. It also has 3 settings for this.It works good for cleaning slag off welds also. A god money and time saving tool !
