Who makes a good regulator?

Post by jonsinfinity »

I'm looking to finally get a good regulator instead of the hardware store regulator that I currently have. It fails when I try to set the pressure below 20-25psi.

Can anyone point me to a good regulator that can be set at < 20psi accurately?

I can't say enough good things about IWata and Campbell-Hausfeld's regulators. Each are good, with the IWata being a bit smoother to adjust. The CH regulators usually have higher p.s.i. ratings than the Iwatas. Keep that in mind if want to use the regulator on a heavy duty compressor.

I hope this helps.
