Match the tools you actually run

Impact wrenches, ratchets, blow guns and tyre inflation are intermittent. Spray finishing is sustained and demands clean, dry air. List both categories before sizing.

If you spray, plan for a refrigerated air dryer and water trap filters. Moisture or oil reaching the gun shows up immediately in the finish.

Mobile and roadside work

For breakdown trucks and tyre repair operations, Force Air manufactures petrol and diesel compressors to customer specification, with electric and pull-start options and a 200-litre / 10-bar configuration available.
