The TSP-5 Patriot Series Air Compressor, Made in USA
The TSP-5 is one of BendPak’s most popular made in USA air compressor models. High-quality, slow running cast iron compressor pumps deliver proven longevity in the most demanding conditions. Because they run at a slower RPM than most comparable units, they’re quieter, run cooler and cost less to operate. 100% cast iron pumps provide the quality and performance needed for heavy‐use applications like automotive and body repair to manufacturing and industrial service.
Hydraulic pump
The two-stage, twin piston pump features splash lubrication for total reliability and a finned cylinder configuration that provides 360° cooling. Heavy‐duty, disc‐type valves are dependable and accessible without having to remove the cylinder head or perform other complicated valve maintenance procedures. A built‐in inter-cooler and air‐cooled after-cooler chill the air, resulting in reduced heat and condensation moisture.
Anti-vibration pads
This air compressor includes a set of four rugged, half-inch thick pads to ensure there’s virtually zero machine vibration during operation. The high-quality elastomer compound resists aging, compression set, water and oil.
Cooling fan
The TSP-5 Patriot air compressor operates at low temperatures and optimizes its efficiency for maximum air output. The pump runs at a lower speed, which also reduces noise in your shop or garage. When you finally decide which air compressor best fits your needs, take into account the overall lifetime maintenance costs. This is the “true cost” of owning anything. Electric bills can accumulate quickly, and more horsepower means a higher bill. That’s exactly why the TSP-5 Elite is such a money-saver: it runs at a cool temperature and runs an efficient 5 HP motor that won’t cut deeply into your bottom line. Why get less when you can save more with the TSP-5 Elite by BendPak?
Features & Specs
