I need an air compressor that is 60-100 psi for a staple gun. Although this air compressor is 200 psi, can I control the psi output?

Yes, you can control the air of pressure that is put out with the regulator.

Yes you can control the PSI. Additionally, you can connect two different sized nail guns. I built my barn with this compressor 5 years ago and it's still going strong and serves as my air source in the barn. I made a cubby hole under the work bench for it to sit and when I need to go mobile I just pull it out and go. I did put flat free tires on it after a couple years.

Yes, there are 2 ports, one unregulated (max psi) and one regulated, which is adjustable via a knob. Just use the right one!

If the stapler is truly leaking air you need to contact the manufacturer, however check for air leaks where air hose connects to the stapler. There should be a rubber o ring in the coupling that connects to the stapler. If this o ring is missing or out of alignment the air pressure will leak off and cause the air compressor to run more than necessary. I use the Surebonder 9615 for upholstery and am very happy with it.

A smaller compressor would work, but if you need tons power at least a 19cfm compressor. I would recommend the aircat gun, am not too happy with the CP7748.

This is a finished nailer I did use with air compressor small size 1-stage, 2 cylinder @ 90 psi.you can start with this or more power (higher psi)

I have one of those Porter Cable compressors I got for a brad nailer, and the Critter works fine with it. You won't need anything like 90 PSI, either. If you use too much pressure, the spray will be very dry and dusty.

The compressor has a regulator that allows you to control the output pressure between 0 and the max compressor pressure. If you look at the picture of the compressor it shows two guages, one is the tank pressure and the other is the regulated pressure. Hope this helps.

I do that with the air compressor, so no you can't with this gun. It is a little annoying because there is a bit of hunting to get it right sometimes.

Pressure (150 psi) won't be the issue. Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) will be the limiting factor using a pancake compressor. It will operate the gun for short periods, then you have to wait for it to catch up.

125 psi line pressure compressor ,most of the compressors that are portable will run this gun but they may have to air up frequently when this gun is used full time versus part time,this is a full time gun.

Not sure if you are looking for maximum input pressure or maximum output pressure, but I have 125 PSI going in and I can barely get 100 PSI going out. It still allows me to run all of my air tools and paint sprayers. Hope this helps.

My gun gets occasional use, and I've owned it for several years. So far, no problems. It does require decent air pressure (100 psi or more) and a large air hose to fire properly. I notice that I'm having to hammer in quite a few nails when the compressor pressure is low enough (80 psi) that it's about to kick on.

It really doesn't have that kind of throughput for air tools. I think you'll just overheat it or plain run out of air because the compressor can't keep up. You can run a large nail gun because it's intermittent use. I blow out the garage but, I don't keep my finger on the trigger full-time.

Can use 80-100 psi. Recommended for this gun is 90 psi. This is a great gun and gets in tight places although I could not find any 3/8" staples with the gun at any of the lowes/home depot stores and had to order on-line. No staples come with the gun.

I run mine @ 90 PSI. I use a Porter Cable pancake at home and a Senco PC1010 on the jobsite. The gun works great with either compressor.

The Range from 90 to 120 is pretty normal for most air tools. I would dial it down to 115 PSI at the highest end. More pressure is unnecessary, and may prematurely ware out the tool. I personally set my compressor to 90 PSI and only step it up in 10 pound increments if I need more power. If the tool you are using starts having problems that force you to crank up the pressure, then chances are there is more wrong then low pressure on the tool, especially if you increase the pressure beyond the recommended range. Never do that.

Almost any compressor has the pressure to run any air tool where the "requirements" factor comes into play is volume measured in cfm. This riveter like a nailer is sn impulse tool as opposed to say a grinder which is constant rotation. Impulse tools require very little cfm only a small tank.You can probably get away with 3 or even 2 cfm and a gallon or two tank around 90-100 psi. A bit more than your average finishing nailer.

that compressor is fine the nail gun operates at 120 max. I was running the gun around 100 to 110 psi No Problems.
