Overview
Rolling it across the jobsite on rubber tires and plugging into a standard outlet is how THE TANK from Metabo HPT is used. High pressure and strong airflow keep framing, roofing, siding or finish nailers driving flush with several running at once.
Crew-level air from an electric compressor is the reason to buy, avoiding gas engines. Several nailers can share it without delay. It is heavy, and the warranty is short for a pro tool.
Who it's for
Contractors on framing, roofing and siding jobs will use its capacity daily. DIY users with one brad nailer will find it far more than needed.
Pros and cons
- High pressure for heavy nailing
- Runs several nailers together
- Electric, no gas engine
- Rubber tires for jobsites
- Heavy to lift
- Needs a dedicated electrical circuit
Performance notes
High tank pressure stores more usable air, so nailers keep firing between motor cycles. Airflow at working pressure decides how many tools it supports at once. Long extension cords lower voltage and slow refill.
