Atlas® AF2 20 Gallon Vertical Portable Air Compressor #ATEMPAF2-FPD

Atlas® AF2 — 1.8 HP (2 HP Peak) Air Compressor

A single tech doing tire changes and light impact-tool work out of a home garage or a one-bay mobile setup doesn't need (or want to pay for) an 80-gallon commercial tank. But a compressor that's too small runs constantly and never catches its breath between tools.

The Atlas® AF2 is a portable 1-stage reciprocating compressor rated for 1.8 HP (2 HP Peak) with a 20 gallon vertical ASME tank, built for shops and commercial operations that need compressed air on tap all day without paying for accessories they don’t need.

Who the AF2 Is Built For

• ✅ A home garage or hobbyist doing tire inflation, light impact work, and the occasional spray-gun touch-up between other jobs
• ✅ A mobile technician who needs a compressor light and small enough to load in a van or trailer and move around a job site on its own wheels
• ✅ A single-bay shop that runs one air tool at a time and doesn't need multiple techs pulling air simultaneously
• ✅ Buyers on standard 110V household power who don't have a 220V line run to their garage or shop
• ✅ Someone replacing a worn-out pancake or hot-dog compressor who wants more tank capacity without upgrading their electrical service
• ✅ A weekend or part-time operation where the compressor sits idle most of the week and just needs to be ready when called on

What the AF2 Is NOT Built For

• ❌ Multi-bay commercial shops running several pneumatic tools at once — the AF2's 1-stage pump and 20-gallon tank will cycle constantly under that load; look at the AF5 or AF6
• ❌ Sandblast cabinets or continuous-duty tools that need sustained high CFM — this unit is sized for intermittent use only
• ❌ Shops needing 220V commercial-grade output — the AF2 tops out at 125 PSI on standard household current

What Makes the AF2 Different

Commercial 2-Stage Pump

The AF2 uses a 2-Cylinder, 1-Stage pump built for daily, all-day duty cycles — not a hobby-grade single-stage unit that struggles under continuous shop use.

CFM & Pressure Output

Delivers 6.0 CFM @ 90 PSI and holds pressure across a 90–125 PSI range, enough headroom to run impact wrenches, tire equipment, and paint tools without the tank running dry.

Plus Package Upgrades

entry-tier unit, no Plus Package upgrades offered.

Power Requirements

110 Volt. Confirm your panel and breaker sizing with an electrician before delivery.
