About this product
The NorthStar PK-6060VNS is a stationary, oil-lubricated air compressor designed for demanding tasks. It features a robust 60-gallon steel tank and is powered by a 3 HP motor operating on 230V corded electric. Delivering a maximum working pressure of 135 psi, it offers a flow rate of 12.6 CFM at 40 psig and 11.3 CFM at 90 psig. Its black steel construction ensures durability, making it suitable for workshop or garage environments where a fixed air supply is needed.
Our take
If you're looking for a serious air compressor for a workshop, this NorthStar unit definitely delivers. The 60-gallon steel tank is a significant plus, providing ample air storage for longer run times with air tools. The 3 HP motor and 230V power requirement mean it's not a casual plug-and-play, but it offers substantial performance, evidenced by the 11.3 CFM at 90 psig. Being stationary and oil-lubricated, it’s built for durability and consistent output, though you'll need to account for its fixed placement and routine oil maintenance. It's a solid investment for heavy-duty applications.
