MAT Industries, LLC, a global manufacturer of the Industrial Air Contractor brand announces the launch of its 10 Gallon Chopper Wheelbarrow compressor that includes the innovative patent pending H4X Remote Air Hub system.
The 10 Gallon Chopper Wheelbarrow is an oil lubed 155 PSI Honda GX160-powered air compressor, which is uniquely balanced with an extra large heavy duty treaded tire for easy portability on job sites. It is equipped with a twin cylinder aluminum pump with cast iron cylinders so it runs cooler and lasts longer.
The Chopper also features the Patent Pending H4X Remote Air Hub system that is mounted to the compressor with a uniquely designed EZ on/off docking station that allows it to operate attached to the compressor or remotely via a ½” supply line.
The H4X Remote Air Hub works by bringing more air closer to the job providing four times faster nail gun recovery time. H4X test results show a 1 second recovery compared to 4 seconds for conventional systems with the air regulated at the compressor.
With the H4X Remote Air Hub system contractors can run more nail guns off of a single compressor without “stair stepping” nail heads and the need for additional hammering.
This 10 Gallon Chopper Wheelbarrow also comes equipped with one ½” unregulated quick connect port on the compressor and two ¼” regulated quick connect ports as part of the H4X Remote Air Hub system.
“It was a natural to pair the power and portability of the Chopper compressor with the H4X Remote Air Hub and its flow, pressure and recovery advantages” says Doug Collins Director of Sales, MAT, Industries. “I’ve watched a crew of 8 guys daisy chain two H4X Remote Air Hub’s together and come up either side of a peaked roof. With the air delivery of the Chopper and the increased productivity of the H4X Air Hub, they had the roof done before lunch.”
Powered by a 5.5 HP Honda OHV engine, the Industrial Air 10 Gallon Chopper Wheelbarrow unit produces 10.3 CFM at 90 PSI. “When designing the 10 Gallon Chopper Wheelbarrow, we had the serious user in mind with the most versatile features that will maximize jobsite productivity” states Doug Hale VP Sales and Marketing, MAT, Industries. “That’s why we balanced the weight over the wheel and gave it a low clearance to fit under tonneau style truck covers.”
