MINI PRESSURE REGULATOR FOR COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEMS, 1/4" NPT PORTS, ADJUST 7 TO 140 PSI

Regulators are often used to adjust the pressure coming out of an air receiver (tank) to match what is needed for the task. Often, when one large compressor is used to supply compressed air for multiple uses (often referred to as "shop air" if built as a permanent installation of pipes throughout a building), additional regulators will be used to ensure that each separate tool or function receives the appropriate pressure it needs. This is important because some air tools, or uses for compressed air, require pressures that may cause damage to tools or materials.
