Posted by Arco Contractors Supply on

Rolair has been engineering and producing the finest compressors in the industry for 60 years! Located in the heart of Wisconsin, they have built quite the reputation for themselves providing professional contractors with compressors of utmost quality and craftmanship.

 At Arco, we offer the FC2002 Double Tank Compressor and the JC10PLUS Single Tank Compressor. In this blog post we will go over some of the specifications of these two models and how to choose between a single and double tank compressor.

Single Tank Compressors

Single-tank air compressors generally have smaller storage capacities than double-tank compressors, which makes them a more sensible option for lower performance requirements and home use. 

The JC10PLUS is a super-quiet oil-less compressor and features a start/stop pressure switch, a super durable roll-cage, safety relief valve, intake filter, a super quiet 7.5-amp motor, air-line regulator and pressure gauge and cord wrap.
