Bostitch CAP2080WB Air Compressor Review

The Bostitch CAP2080WB Air Compressor is an excellent option to run multiple tools at one time. It can easily run 4 finish nails and can hence keep four people busy on their jobs at one particular time.

It has the capability to generate 7.6 CFM at a pressure of 40 pounds per square inch and 6.5 CFM at a pressure of 90 pounds per square inch. Overall, this unit can generate a maximum pressure of 135 pounds per square inch that is usually enough for small to medium jobs. Its biggest advantage is its oil lubricated design that reduces friction between moving parts and hence creates much lesser noise as compared to similar oil free options. Moreover, the parts that use oil are sealed away from the air supply so as to avoid any contamination due to mixing of oil and air.
