1/2" or 3/8 ?? I want to make a 4' loop and pull at least 50 lbs constant pressure. Which would you recommend. I will need a handful of these loops.

3/8 should work fine, if you want more piece of mind, use the 1/2 cord. I am amazed at the strength of the 3/8 red cord.

I used 1'' and 7/8'' and found that the 1 inch is the way to go..The 7/8'' way the exact size of the shaft and it essentially screwed it self in and took some muscle to do so. I used 1'' on my next 3 taps installed and the shank fell right in and tightened up nicely!!

Not sure why it says 1/2", but it is definitely 3/8". I checked it with my pipe caliper just now.

I would use 3/8". You will need to purchase a barbed tube fitting 3/8" tube x 1/2 npt

I used 3/4" pvc pipe, very good, powerful pumping as long as installing according to instructions provided.no problem at all.

What ever size you prefer really. Ive ran with both the 3" cylinders and the big 8" discs as long as you have a big enough pump it really isn't that noticeable.

It might work, but it depends on the rubber line's inside diameter. 3/4 inch would probably work fine. 1/2 inch would probably run the generator but you might find it "starved" under heavy load conditions.

I am not a pro. I think that 1/8" thick metal, is you probably can weld that thickness metal with the machine at the 100%the duty cycle. 3/32" rod is the maximum rod size I would use. You can weld 1/4" metal in a pinch, with multiple passes, let you welder cool down, so you don't burn out the welder. Good luck

OK... but isn't the reality of it that the I.D. of a 1/4" fitting (which by the way is the PIPE THREAD size of the fitting, not the inner size) roughly the same as that of a 3/8" air hose? Yes, it is.Then, take a look at the inside diameter of the standard AIR FITTING... pretty small, isn't it? Bottom line is this: For the very short time that the air is passing through the smaller diameter air fitting, the pressure drop across that fitting is negligible.

It's the chain thickness. 1/8 is slightly thicker than 3/32. You can use 1/8 chains with 3/32 cogs, but not the other way around.

No. I rigged something up to do exactly what you're asking and found that I didn't get even close to enough pressure/flow to my mini sprinkler or drippers. You really need the half inch and then use the barb coupling to come off that line to the 1/4. This will save you a lot of trouble.

1/2 inch works best you want the flange inserted properly to get accurate temp.I build smoker's as source of extra Income in my retirement.

1/8" NPT is the gauge thread size. Be aware that no dimension on 1/8" NPT (Pipe thread) is actually 1/8" inch -- it is a bit larger. Yes it is an excellent idea to replace with a 2" gauge with a quality gauge with more reasonable range; the provided rubber guard will fit most 2" gauges.

The 2", 1 3/4", 1 1/2", 1 3/8", and the 1 1/4" have a 3/8th" shaft. The 1", and the 3/4" have a 5/16th" shaft. The 1/2", 3/8", and 1/4" have a 1/4th" shaft. Hope this helps. Also, we cooled these with oil and it worked well.

Yes 1/4" and 3/8" refers to hose size not connector. Larger hose just flows air better. I actually have both and it works well with either one. But I am not a contractor doing speed work. Your compressors ability to keep up will be more noticeable than hose size.

I don't know about all that stuff, I'm new with my nailer so I bought bostitch nails. So far I've used 2 inch and 1 1/4 both are great with no problems. If you ry them the worse case is they jam and you have to get them out, go for it!

I'd go with at least 1" as well. I had a few installed in some 3/4" and they didn't seem hold up as well as the larger pipe. And they do work great, I've used these for three seasons now and just ordered a 25 pk to set up a larger system this spring for meat birds and replace some of the ones for my layers.
