California Air Tools CAT-AUX10A Lightweight Portable Aluminum Air Tank, 10 Gallon, Silver

So far so good. No complaints. So glad I have this for finish nailer and filling tires

very nice tank, seems very well made, great for the use I intended.

My compressor is in the front of the garage. And we have a large back yard, so having to take the lawn tractor, dump trailer or some other cart with aired tires around to the front of the house to add air is nuts, I use this tank to air up tires in the backyard. I have about 14 tires back there. Love it!

Other reviewers mentioned that CAT went cheap on the brass and they werent joking.... The goop they use to seal the threads is also pretty nasty stuff...smells like some sort of epoxy. The compressor I got from them was kind of leaky until I taped and reseated everything, so I didnt even bother filling the tank up before replacing the fittings. I cant say for sure if they are even brass. As you can see the Tee fitting broke apart as I was removing it. The tank itself is very lightweight and feels solid. Im wary about replacing the drain valve and main intake fitting since I dont want to deal with returning the item should anything happen. I dont think the threaded ports that are welded onto the tank are solid aluminum, but what can you expect for about $100? Its still a good value, but I wish they would have not included the extras and maybe just had more solid ports.

I found the whole assembly well-thought-out for the casual user. The valve does a good job of keeping the air in when you want it to, the connections make it easy to either fill the tank or use it. Could they be tougher or better protected? Sure. But in casual use, this thing should last for a very long time. Key thing to longevity is to detach all hoses and other stuff while transporting it. You cant expect the tank valve to survive much abuse given how its installed vs. how the rest of the assembly acts on it. Welds on mine looked fine, just as the paint job. Its very light, and it stores a much more air than my compressor. Makes it ideal for quick refills of tires and like stuff, rather than having to lug a compressor and power cord around. I would also recommend it for large but intermittent loads, where your compressor can use it like a battery to store air that is going to be released in short bursts that exceed the capacity of the built-in accumulator. Using this tank in a fixed installation is likely a waste as similar steel-based tanks cost less. Downside of steel tanks, however, is that you have to watch for water (and the resultant corrosion).

I would have liked to have threaded ends on the hose. I dont need this to put air in tires.

met my expectations just fine. I wish in a way I had got the aluminum rather than the steel for the light weight but I guess the steel will hold up longer. works just like it is suppose to. filled it with 100lbs of air , brought it home and pumped up both bike tires . no problem. Its all steel so the most that could go wrong is with the fittings and they can be replaced. Soooo, all is good. thanks

Initially very impressive. Twice the weight/thickness as my old corroded tank and no pressure loss after two days. Not too expensive.

Lightweight and holds air with no leaks, so far. The brass fitting are junk, though. Do yourself a favor and buy fittings the shops use- Milton.

Not happy with the finish of the product. 2 dents on the tank, a few scratches, and the end of the tank was clearly resprayed with what looks like a rattle can spray paint. I will be looking to have the item replaced.
