Powerful Maintenance-Free Diaphragm Compressor for Moderate Use

The Badger Airstorm 180-15 Compressor delivers reliable, maintenance-free performance for hobbyists and professionals who airbrush with moderate frequency. This powerful 1/6 horsepower diaphragm compressor provides consistent air pressure up to 57 PSI (4 bar) without requiring oil or lubrication, making it the perfect choice for scale modelers, miniature painters, and airbrush artists seeking dependable performance with minimal upkeep.

Maintenance-Free Diaphragm Technology

Unlike oil-lubricated piston compressors that require regular maintenance, the Airstorm 180-15 features advanced diaphragm technology that never needs oil or lubrication. This maintenance-free design eliminates the hassle of oil changes and reduces long-term operating costs while ensuring clean, moisture-free air delivery that won't contaminate your paint or damage your airbrush. Simply plug it in and start painting—no maintenance required.

The compact, portable design makes it easy to move between workspaces or take to workshops and painting events.

Quiet, Stable Operation

The integrated suction cup feet minimize vibration and prevent the compressor from walking across your work surface during operation. The diaphragm design operates more quietly than many piston compressors, creating a more comfortable painting environment for extended sessions. The 6-foot power cord provides flexibility in workspace setup without requiring extension cords.

The included 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch hose adaptor ensures compatibility with virtually all airbrush brands and models. Works seamlessly with Badger airbrushes and other professional airbrush systems.
