About the Makita 3.0 HP Big Bore Air Compressor with Cast Iron Construction and Oil-Lubricated Pump - MAC5200
Maintain consistent performance in a variety of air-powered tools!
The Makita MAC5200 air compressor is built for professionals who need consistent, high-powered air supply for demanding applications. Whether you're running framing nailers for house construction, impact wrenches in an auto repair shop, or paint sprayers for finishing work, this compressor ensures you get uninterrupted performance without pressure drops. The 3.0 HP motor generates 6.5 CFM at 90 PSI, providing enough airflow to operate multiple tools simultaneously without slowing down. Unlike smaller compressors that struggle with continuous operation, the compressor's Big Bore cast iron pump is engineered for faster recovery times, meaning you can keep working without long waits for pressure buildup.
This air compressor is designed to withstand tough environments like construction sites, garages, and workshops. The oil-lubricated pump keeps internal temperatures lower, reducing wear and extending the lifespan of crucial components—a key advantage over oil-free compressors that often overheat with prolonged use. The copper-finned discharge tubing efficiently dissipates heat, preventing moisture buildup inside the tank that could lead to rust and reduced efficiency over time. Routine maintenance is also simplified with an accessible oil drain and sight glass, so you can quickly check levels and perform maintenance without disassembling the unit. The lever-handle ball valve tank drain makes moisture removal faster and easier, ensuring the compressor stays clean and efficient for years of reliable use.
The folding handle and rugged wheels allow for easy transport, whether you're rolling it across a construction site, loading it into a truck, or navigating a workshop. The built-in storage compartment keeps air fittings and accessories neatly organized, eliminating wasted time searching for parts, while the air hose wrap holds up to 50 feet of hose, ensuring quick setup and tear-down at every job site. With a built-in thermal overload switch to protect against overheating, the Makita MAC5200 air compressor is built for professionals who demand power, efficiency, and durability without compromise.
Makita stands as a symbol of innovation, durability, and unmatched performance. Their legacy spanning over a century continues to set the standard for professional-grade tools designed to empower craftsmen and builders worldwide. Whether you’re tackling precision work or heavy-duty projects, they deliver reliability and results that exceed expectations.
