Atlas Air Force AF8 80 Gallon Commercial Air Compressor | 5 HP | 2-Stage | 220V Single Phase | 20 CFM @ 145 PSI
The Atlas Air Force AF8 is a true commercial-grade two-stage air compressor designed for automotive repair shops, fabrication facilities, fleet maintenance operations, and industrial service centers that rely on compressed air every day. Built around a heavy-duty 5 HP motor, a high-efficiency two-cylinder cast iron two-stage pump, and an American-made 80-gallon ASME vertical tank, the AF8 delivers exceptional airflow, quiet operation, and long-term reliability for demanding professional environments.
Producing up to 20 CFM at 145 PSI and 19 CFM at 175 PSI, the AF8 easily powers multiple technicians using air tools simultaneously while maintaining consistent system pressure. Atlas specifically recommends the AF8 for three- to four-technician automotive shops or smaller businesses that want enough air capacity to support future growth.
The AF8 includes premium commercial components throughout, including a factory-installed magnetic starter, an industrial-grade Hubbell pressure switch, an EATON magnetic starter, vibration isolation pads, a compressor oil drain extension, a hands-free tank drain extension, and a finned tank inlet tube that helps reduce moisture buildup inside the tank. These features combine to maximize reliability, simplify maintenance, and extend compressor service life, making the AF8 one of the best values in professional shop air systems.
