Well, I know it comes from IR, so it must be engineered to match the compressor, but I still don't like the idea that the hose is only five sixteenths" id. Seems like that is an unnecessary restriction so close to the pump's half inch" outlet and before my half inch" distribution piping. I also didn't find it to be very good value - over $100 for four rubber feet, concrete anchors and the braided hose and fittings. Really makes the big 80 gallon 2-stage 5 hp compressor at $1,000 seem like a bargain, comparatively.
If I hadn't been in a hurry I would have figured out some isolators myself (pieces of tire?) and just plumbed it with half inch"iron pipe. With hindsight, if I were to buy a kit again, I'd opt for the one for the larger compressor and adopt it to mine to get a larger braided hose.
Incidentally, my compressor number is not the 3-phase model listed in the possible selections, but a single phase.
