Air Compressors

The Blue Star 185 is reliable power when size matters! Great for farm, ranch, maintenance, construction and hobbyist. Compact and portable, its small footprint uses little truck space. Optional running gear also makes the Blue Star one-man portable. Large 5-gallon fuel capacity (DX models) leads its class. Longer run time for welder or generator usage. Standard Auto Idle (DX models) idles engine while not in use. Reduces fuel consumption and noise. Reliable air-cooled OHV engines ensure consistent engine performance. Single-range amperage control makes setting amperage levels easy. Class-leading 6,000-watt peak power (Blue Star 185 models) of regulated power to extend power tool life. Hour meter (DX models) provides easy tracking of run hours for maintenance intervals. Receptacle covers improve reliability by protecting receptacles from debris. Provides the strongest and most reliable generator power. Our Accu-Rated, not inflated, standard for measuring generator power guarantees delivery of all the power its machine promises.

DX = Deluxe Model upgrades to electric start engine and a 5-gallon fuel tank also includes auto-idle, and hour meters.
