VIAIR Launches Gen. 2 485C and 480C Onboard Air Systems

May 18, 2018 by VIAIR

Take a look at VIAIR’s NEW Onboard Air (OBA) systems featuring our NEW Dual 485C Gen. 2 Compressors and the already popular Dual 480C compressors. These upgraded kits have some of the same features of our original onboard air kits, but now include our NEW 485C Platinum/Stealth Black compressors and the 480C Chrome/Stealth Black compressors.

Both of these kits are ideal for a variety of pneumatic applications including (but not limited to): powering air tools, air lockers, air horns, air tanks, air bags, tire inflation, and load levelers. With these pre-packed OBA kits, we’ve made purchasing easy saving you time and research! These OBA kits come complete with compressors, air tank, fittings, pressure switch, relay(s), electrical connectors, and all applicable accessories.

Dual 485C Gen. 2 OBA

Make your onboard system stand out with the sleek new head design of the 485C. And with the new 485C Gen. 2 compressors, this is our only OBA kit rated at 100% duty @ 200 PSI. Featuring an increased head port size of 3/8” NPT, this OBA kit allows for more CFM – so you’ll fill your application faster!

VIAIR’s Dual 485C Onboard Air system also features quieter dB levels due to thicker vibration isolators on the feet. With the same mounting footprint as our 444C, you’ll be able to upgrade to the new 485C with ease!

Additional upgrades exclusively available for the Dual 485C OBA are:

P/N 20085 (Platinum)

P/N 20185 (Stealth Black)View the full product details here Read More about VIAIR Launches Gen. 2 485C and 480C Onboard Air Systems

Presenting the Furry Friends of VIAIR – Our Mascots

January 8, 2018 by VIAIR

We consider ourselves a family here at VIAIR and we welcome our team members’ furry friends as part of that family as well! Sometimes, if you’re lucky, you may hear our furry mascots saying hello in the background when you call VIAIR! In this post, we will introduce you to our favorite family mascots: Savannah, Happy, Dakota and occasionally Argos, the Dogs of VIAIR.

Stealthy and Sweet

Savannah, the shyest and classiest of all our furry friends! She is a unique breed native to Taiwan called the Taiwan Dog. Once in a while her brother-from-another-mother Argos graces us with his presence! Savannah is mostly timid and enjoys her alone time, but can also be found floating around the office elegantly showing off her salt-and-pepper hair.

New VIAIR DOT Approved Premium Push-to-Connect Fittings Lineup

April 17, 2017 by VIAIR

We’re excited to share our new DOT approved Push-to-Connect fittings, made from nickel-plated brass for durability and corrosion resistance, with a max working pressure of 200 PSI. These fittings make installation of an airline a breeze! Simply push the airline securely into the fitting and it is locked in and ready to go.

Our Push-To-Connect fittings have a highly competitive price point, offering an excellent quality solution for connecting air lines. They provide quick installation, while still allowing airlines to flex and move.

These fittings use an internal collet and an external push button to connect quickly and effortlessly, creating a leak free connection. VIAIR’s Push-to-Connect fittings come in 1/8”, 1/4”, and 3/8” O.D. airline sizes with 1/8”, 1/4”, and 3/8” NPT fittings if applicable.

Push-To-Connect fittings are a type of easily removed compression fitting, or quick connect fitting, that allows an airline to be attached without the use of tools. This saves up to 75% of assembly time when compared to a standard compression fitting. They use a resilient O-ring for sealing and a grip ring (or collet) to hold the air line in place so there are also no loose parts to handle. The resilient O-ring guarantees a leak free seal. The fittings are also re-usable and can be connected and disconnected several times.

Our fittings feature nickel plated brass for increased resistance to corrosion, and all male pipe threads have pre-applied PTFE based pipe sealant, saving you additional time on labor. They have a full flow design, providing 60% more flow area than conventional fittings with internal tube support. Read More about New VIAIR DOT Approved Premium Push-to-Connect Fittings Lineup
