3/4 and 1" Impact Guns

Post by steven kiser »

Yeah I know, breaking up a babble doesn't make it shorter. If you work on trucks and use a 3/4 or 1" gun you will need to use an air line with a 1/2 or 3/4 inch inside diameter. You will also need to make a portable air supply tank. I took an air tank from an air brake set up on a truck. Made a cradle for it. Attached a nipple for a supply line, have a 3/4 inch for the bigger impact guns as well as a line for the smaller ones. Basically it's a portable station that can give me the pressure and volume of air i need for the big guns. Without this there isn't enough to run the guns off of the regular shop air line. I also ran a 1/2" copper tube from the compressor manifold to the bay i use for the bigger guns so sometimes i don't need to drag out the portable air tank.
never argue with a fool, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience
