Compressed Air Line2312

I have three smaller shop buildings and I bought this to plumb all of the shops to my air compressor. It is so nice to have air to all three shops! We had zero leaks when installed and it was realitively easy!

Very impressed with this kit. I watched this kit for a while and waited till it went on sale. Once it did I ordered it and put it in the corner of my shop. That’s was 2months ago. Finally got ready to install. So, I done some research and was looking into how I was gonna straighten it back out because I’m OCD and wanted it straight. I had a PVC conduit pipe that’s I.D. matched the O.D. of the pipe. I was gonna run it through that to straighten it. Well when I opened the kit it came with a roller straightener that mounts to a table and you run the pipe through. Works great. Gets it close then once I fastened it with the surface mounts the kit come with it satisfied my OCD. The mounts that came with my kit are much better than what the images showed. Plus, unless I over looked it the roller/straightener wasn’t shown to be part of the kit. Over all very satisfied with this product.

Used the 200 ft kit to line my garage during framing stage. Your best bet is to get a tubing straightener to achieve clean lines and straight runs. As others have mentioned the aluminum blocks leak badly. This is due to the threads being straight cut not NPT. You'll need lots of tape and pipe thread sealant. Expect a sink your plugs and fittings all the way to the hilt.

I bought the 1/2"×100FT Compressed Air Line Kit. Very pleased with the purchase. There were some wart's, but all in all its a great system. Very easy to install and no major leaking issues. I have included a video so please check it out. Minor issue with the provided block plugs, they are not NPT and will not seal. I replaced them with true NPT plugs from a hardware store or install a NPT fitting (like gauges) in place of the plugs. Once that was resolved, no issue.

Funny how things work well when you know what you’re doing. Many bad reviews on Amazon are mostly user errors, This kit is high quality and easy to work with. Comes with all hardware and even a tool to cut the piping. Only things i used from my garage was high pressure/blue teflon tape and Oring lube for the fittings. I highly recommend this kit.

Pretty easy to install. Hardest part is straightening out the tube before cutting it. Make sure to go back and tighten all the fittings after a month or so. I had a couple blow outs and found that all the fittings had loosened up.

Bought and installed this as part of a major upgrade for the air system in my workshop which included installing an air line dryer. The tubing is great, bends consistently, relatively lightweight and easy to work with. Follow the recommendation to unroll it along a flat surface and you'll get nice straight runs. The challenge, of course, is that there's no way to pressure test the system until it's all hooked up. Once hooked up, the compression fittings all leaked. for me, that was 4 fittings. Thankfully I was making relatively short runs without the tees or 90-degree fittings involved so the leak isn't so bad that it disabled the shop air completely; however, it DOES mean that my compressor runs too much, the air dryer has to deal with extra volume, etc. I changed fittings, re-cut ends and made sure I used the included beveling tool, the works. Still leaks. Meanwhile the Shark Bite fittings used to plumb in the air dryer were leak free from the first moment. If I were to do it again I'd just get pex and sharkbite fittings. In the meantime I'm trying to find alternatives for the end fittings to see if I can get them to not leak.

The aluminum end blocks are extremely difficult to get threads to seal. Especially the supplied block to hose fittings. I have read all instructions and tips that I could find. I have tried several types of plumbers tape and putty. I think the fitting threads in to far. Poor QA. Feels kind of loose? Bought 3 sets. Out of the six aluminum end blocks I have tried so far, 2 are just not going to work, the other 4 are sealed at the moment but I have no confidence they will stay that way.
