About this product
The Makita MAC2400 is a portable hand-carry air compressor with a 2.5 HP motor and a 4.2-gallon twin-stack steel tank, delivering a maximum working pressure of 130 PSI. This oil-lubricated compressor operates on 1-phase 120V power and features cast iron construction for durability. Weighing 80.8 lbs, it's designed for professional use, offering robust performance for various pneumatic tools on job sites, despite its substantial weight.
Our take
As a user of power tools, the Makita MAC2400 really stands out as a workhorse. The 2.5 HP motor provides ample power, and the 4.2-gallon twin-stack tank ensures a decent air supply for continuous operation with many pneumatic tools. The 130 PSI maximum working pressure is suitable for most jobsite applications. I appreciate the durable cast iron construction, which gives confidence in its longevity, though it contributes to the hefty 80.8 lbs weight, making it less 'portable' than others. Being oil-lubricated means it requires more maintenance compared to oil-free models, but often translates to a longer lifespan and quieter operation.
