Hey how's it goin' Roland???
:) You're absolutely right about the oil-less type air compressors. After what I went through, I really believe this type of air compressors were made for very limited or occasional use. Due to the fact the compressors electrical motor and along with the piston chamber would get extremely hot during long periods of use. While the oil lube type air compressor that I now have and use for long periods of time, runs at a cool temp compared to a oil-less type compressor. But one thing that I did notice while I was removing the old piston chamber on the oil-less compressor, there was an extremely amount of friction going on between the piston seal and the piston chamber but only on a certain spot. And what puzzles me, is that the piston seal popped right in the same place that all the friction was taking place. Now I'm thinking that if this was an oil-less type compressor, this probably never would have happened. What do you guys think??? |
