Comments on Senco PC1130
I’ve been interested in that little bitty senco compressor for a while but when I was ready to buy I decided it was too small and chose this one instead. After shooting only maybe 30 brads with it I prepared to use it the third time and as I started firing staples the compressor kicked on and after a change in tone it would not build any pressure. Completely ruined the day, and to make things worse the location Senco told me to bring it for service did not exist, a building wasn’t even at the location they had been out of business so long. After a frustrated phone call I drove another 45 minutes to the next closest service location and when dropping it off was told it could be a week or months to repair because ever since Senco filed Chapter 11 replacement parts where much harder to get….not what I wanted to hear. The only reason I gave it two starts is that I guess not many people will experience this same situation; except for a manufacturing defect it is a nice light unit for light duty work….but you’ve been warned.
I am on my second Senco PC1130. The first arrived with a smashed oil reservoir cover and oil all over everything. I’m still working on the return of that one. The second arrived fine. I live at high altitude and when I ran the compressor it would not shut off at full pressure. I got it to work by adjusting the pressure switch limits. However, my first job with it at a higher altitude had me making further adjustments to get it to shut off automatically. I’ve never had this problem with any of my other compressors and I can’t see why this one should be sensitive to altitude? The compressor is about 20 pounds lighter than my “portable” Emglo and I am grateful for that. I’ve only used it with a trim gun and it seemed more than up to the task. This is medium loud and quieter that oil-less compressors that I have used. I have no regrets so far. This one was the second choice in a Tools of the Trade review (the first choice was about $500!). It is made in China.
If you don’t mind about 60 pounds, the 15amp Dewalt (Emglo) is a great unit. I’ve had the original Emglo version for over ten years and going strong. I just wanted something a little easier to carry up stairs!
