Metabo HPT unveiled its new pancake compressor, The Tank (EC9146). This is the industry’s first 200 PSI High Capacity Compressor. This compressor packs 25% more pressure into a more petite body than the Metabo EC710S. That higher pressure provides more power to run a whole framing, roofing, or siding crew simultaneously. It offers professionals a versatile, powerful compressor that features many upgrades.
Capacity and Power
A 6-gallon tank provides plenty of capacity, maximizing productivity. The Tank can drive nails flush with zero delays, thus boosting efficiency. With 4CFM at 90PSI, The EC9146 delivers 30% more airflow than the Metabo EC99S, making it easier to run multiple nailers simultaneously with quick reloading. With its capacity and PSI, the pancake compressor can run two framing nailers, siding nailers, or roofing nailers at the same rate as a traditional pancake compressor. It also can run three 15-Ga or 16-Ga finish nailers or five 18-Ga brad nailers at once, allowing a finish crew to get jobs done faster.
Portability and Durability
The Tank is 22% lighter than a traditional twin-stack compressor, such as the EC99S. The new compressor weighs just 41 lbs., making it easily portable around the job site. A solid steel “roll bar” handle makes carrying The Tank up or down stairs easier.
The steel handle provides durability for the harshest work environments and protects against damage if bounced around in the back of a trailer or truck. An oil-free design offers minimal maintenance on the tank while delivering high durability for a compressor ready for use.
