Re: Air lines distribution


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

My two cents,

I have to second using PEX - I use 3/4, I have around 60¡¯ with 5 drops - key for me was buying the Ryobi crimper for the Stainless rings - use it for all my plumbing/ hydronic heating and air connections I have made 500+ connections and truly cannot recall a leak on any. I have cable trays across the shop ?drops from their to the machines is a pex T to pex - to NPT thread + Quick connect or a faucet pex connector with screw flange.

A second point someone else raised is that I have two California air 2HP compressors (10 Gallon tanks) they sit next to each other. For normal use I only use one, if ?sandblasting I turn on both. They are connected to the airline system through two check valves (nomalising pressure).

Or just get another small compressor and put it right by the slider.

Do not use black pipe !

So far I only use my air compressor for small things like pin nailer and blowing dust.
I ordered mac clamps and I need to distribute air across my shop.
I wonder if you have any recommendations on air hoses/manifolds/fittings?
