Pressure Regulators

Can anyone suggest a workable pressure regulator and mositure trap for attaching to a small air tank and compressor? Aztec makes a combination regulator/moisture trap, but it is priced around $75.00. Can I make something cheaper from Home Depot or Lowe’s?

Any info will help.

Thanks, Mark

You probably could get something from either of those 2 places you mention, but it won’t be nowheres near as good as the Aztec piece. Buy cheap, get cheap. If you’re going to be doing a lot of airbrushing, spend the money now and you’ll be better off.

You might check with a local auto paint supply, or air compressor (Pnumatic repair) shop. You will find good quality at a better price. $75 is a bit pricy for what is involved.

I got a pressure regulator at Lowe’s for $12 and a moisture trap for $7.

Here’s some.
