About the Makita 2.5 HP Big Bore Air Compressor with Cast Iron Construction and Oil-Lubricated Pump - MAC2400
Consistent power for all your air tool needs!
The Makita MAC2400 air compressor is built for contractors, mechanics, and dedicated DIYers who need reliable, high-powered air compression for demanding tasks. With its Big Bore cast iron pump and piston, this unit provides faster recovery times, allowing you to maintain consistent air pressure for longer periods—perfect for framing, roofing, and automotive work where downtime isn't an option. Unlike standard compressors that struggle with performance drops, this air compressor delivers 4.2 CFM at 90 PSI, ensuring that nail guns, impact wrenches, and spray guns run efficiently without interruption.
Built for real jobsite conditions, the durable roll-cage construction protects the compressor from bumps, drops, and rough handling, while the oil-lubricated pump runs at a lower RPM (1,730), reducing wear and noise (79 dB). This means you get longer-lasting performance and a quieter operation, making it ideal for both indoor workshops and outdoor sites. The copper-finned discharge tubing minimizes heat buildup and moisture accumulation, helping to prevent water contamination in the tank, which is essential for extending tool life and ensuring smooth operation. The large automotive-style air filter increases intake efficiency, so you get more air with less effort, reducing strain on the motor and improving overall performance.
For ease of use and maintenance, the oil sight glass allows for quick oil level checks so you can avoid unexpected breakdowns. The lever-handle ball valve tank drain makes air tank drainage simple and efficient, preventing rust buildup and maintaining optimal performance. With a low AMP draw, the compressor reduces breaker trips, making it easier to start, even on residential circuits. Plus, the built-in thermal overload protection safeguards the motor from overheating, giving you confidence on demanding jobs. Whether you're powering multiple tools on a job site or running an efficient home workshop, the Makita MAC2400 air compressor is engineered to deliver consistent, durable, and high-performance air compression that keeps you working without delays.
