The Atlas Air Force AF6 is a commercial-grade, two-stage vertical air compressor engineered for professionals who demand consistent performance and lasting durability. Operating between 145 and 175 PSI, this unit provides the air power needed for a wide range of shop tools, including sandblast cabinets, impact wrenches, and paint sprayers. Its powerful low-RPM 5HP motor and heavy-duty 3-cylinder cast iron pump (featuring two low-pressure and one high-pressure cylinder) deliver impressive air output with minimal noise, making it ideal for busy workspaces where quiet operation is valued.
Built with reliability and convenience in mind, the Atlas AF6 includes a set of vibro-isolation pads to reduce vibration and noise, a hands-free tank drain extension for easier maintenance, and a finned tank inlet tube to minimize moisture buildup inside the tank. The 80-gallon vertical tank is made in the USA and offers ample air storage for extended tool use. Whether you're outfitting a commercial shop or upgrading your garage, the AF6 delivers professional-grade performance and rugged construction—all at a competitive price point.
