Hey all, I am looking to add compressed air in my shop. The question is what kind of pipe. Galvanized steel, black iron, or PVC. PVC is sure cheaper but I'm told perhaps unsafe. I am only looking to

An air line can never be too big or too strong <g> I would go with the steel pipe. Your plan sounds good, but don't forget to set the pipe up so any water trapped in it can be drained. Forget PVC, it

Might want to check out these links for some ideas. I have seen quite a few discussions on various boards re which pipe material and I think the consensus is a combination of galvanized and copper. I

copper is fine. there are a few grades of copper, so be careful. type "M", "L", and "K". "M" is for house water lines, and could probably be used for compressed air, but the types designed for air ar

I agree wit Bruce, NEVER use pvc for air. I have seen it blow up! Certain ABS pipe is rated for pressure. One might check the ryan herco catalog just to be sure. I think it's ryanherco.com... there a

While we are talking about air compressors, I've been doing some research because I'm thinking of upgrading my compressor. think 2 stage is the way to go because you can get high PSI (usually 175) an

A two stage compressor will run much longer without heating up as bad and the compressor can catch up much faster than the single stage compressors. If you run an air sander than the smaller compress

Why 2 stage 175? simple, length of time between running the compressor. If you bleed off 90 psi off a 175 psi source it will last a lot longer than bleeding off a 125 psi source (typical holding tank

Bob et al. Using large diameter (2 inch) galvanized for the main line is OK (good for storage and less friction loss and relatively cheap compared to 2 inch copper) and I can see why you would want t

As far as capacity is concerned, I agree that people should go by the CFM rating @ some PSI, NOT the HP rating of the motor. That said, when buying a compressor you also should consider the electric

I may be wrong on this (am on so many other things, just ask my wife) but if you do a LOT of work that needs compressed air you almost have to purchase the two-stage industrial strength compressor. I
