Grip Rite Wheelbarrow Compressor Electric Dual Voltage 3HP

Description

Solid cast-iron pump cylinders power the Grip Rite 3HP Wheelbarrow Compressor to drive multiple framing guns and roofing nailers across large residential construction sites. A heavy-duty dual-voltage induction motor drives a twin-cylinder cast iron pump, delivering 8.4 CFM at 90 PSI across dual eight-gallon wheelbarrow tanks. Framing crews run four framing nailers simultaneously without pressure dropouts. Operating on 120V pulls 18 amps, requiring a dedicated 20A breaker or conversion to 240V.

Dual-Voltage Recovery Bench Limits

Pneumatic bench testing verifies delivered air output records 8.4 CFM at 90 PSI and 9.5 CFM at 40 PSI, supporting four framing nailers cycling at high production rates. Tank pump-up from zero to 135 PSI cut-out takes 65 seconds, with recovery from 105-PSI cut-in to 135-PSI cut-out completing in 18 seconds. Wired at 240V single-phase, the induction motor draws 9 amps, running significantly cooler during continuous multi-hour framing cycles in 95-degree summer weather. The pump operates at a low 1150 RPM.

Heavy ASTM Class 30 cast iron forms the twin-cylinder pump block, crankcase, and finned cylinder head, delivering superior heat dissipation and long valve service life. The dual four-gallon steel wheelbarrow tanks integrate a heavy-duty front steel roll cage and solid flat-free wheel assembly. Sized for rough construction terrain, the wheelbarrow compressor weighs 178 lbs, measuring 44 inches long, 20 inches wide, and 26 inches high.

Key Features of Grip Rite GR300EB

Framing contractors and roofing crews buy Grip Rite 3HP Wheelbarrow Compressors to supply high-volume air to multiple production nailers. Compare commercial wheelbarrow contractor air compressor pricing to equip commercial framing jobsite trailers.

• Solid cast-iron twin-cylinder pump delivers 8.4 CFM at 90 PSI, running cool at 1150 RPM for long commercial service life.
• Dual-voltage 3-horsepower electric motor easily switches between 120V and 240V power to match jobsite electrical feeds cleanly.
• Twin wheelbarrow steel tanks provide eight gallons of air storage, buffering pressure spikes during simultaneous four-gun firing.
• Heavy-duty flat-free front wheel rolls over jobsite mud, rocks, and extension cords without puncture deflation downtime.
• Steel wrap-around roll cage protects the heavy cast-iron pump, motor, and dual brass pressure gauges from jobsite rollovers.

Roofing Jobsite Negative Selection Filter

The dual wheelbarrow handles balance the 178-pound machine comfortably when rolling up equipment ramps into trailers. Do not buy this heavy wheelbarrow unit for indoor finish carpentry trim punch lists, lightweight trunk storage, or single 15A extension cord circuits without converting to 240V. Routine care requires checking crankcase pump oil levels daily, draining both lower tank petcock valves daily after shutdown, and inspecting drive belt tension every 250 operating hours.
