Thomas Compressors T-635HD Review by R Scott, November 19, 2008

It is ideal for any small project contactor. You can use a framer with it, its very quiet, its light, it recompresses quickly, and has low electrical draw. I no longer use my emglo (unless I’m on a job more than a week with strictly framing). Spare your back one less heavy thing to pick up all the time and get one of these wonderfully engineered compressors.

Received as expected, actually a day early thanks Amazon, the compressor is very well packed for shipping.
Upon set-up and adding a regulator, all seems fine -but it is much much louder then expected, it seems to have blown the pressure switch after 4.5 hours, it will not hold air.
I’m now trying to get a reply from Thomas on where to take it or send it back for repair,I would like to resolve this as the compresser is a great size for one gun use…
Thomas Tech did return my call – worked with me on phone to try & fix problem, he overnighted the replacement part and upon installation everything is up & running – good tec support, this has caused it to quiet a little

I have larger compressors and wanted something lighter to take on small remodeling jobs. This compressor has delivered as promised. It does not have a lot of storage or pump volume, so if you have hose leaks, or go to blow off something, you notice yourself waiting. I wish that the compressor had come with a regulator. This seems to be a quality tool that a frequent user could justify the cost of through reliability and longevity. Time will tell if oil-less technology will endure. I do apreciate not worrying about oil leaks or the fan spraying oil on customer’s walls and carpets. Cold-weather starts are much better.

Light weight, dependable; and quiet! This is what I was looking for in a compressor…and this is why I specifically went looking for Thomas Compressors.

I worked on a top notch remodeling company restoring historical houses, and a carpenter used one on everything from framing, to trim work, rain or shine Thomas kept up…Since then I have been waiting for my Emglo to get retired so I too can be a proud owner of a Thomas T-635HD

One thing that I did not like when my Thomas T-635HD arrived was a real lack of directions to assemble the few parts that did need to be put on before operation, but anyone with common knowlege of compressors will figure it out.

Also a FYI for those ordering… REMEMBER!!! to get a pressure control valve, and all the connections you will need to mount a hose coupler; because these items do not come with the tool.

This compressor is not intended for HIGH-PRODUCTION ie… nail-off on sheeting, production framing or sand-blasting… if you are in the market for a compressor that is small,light;and dependabley quiet… Your search has ended here !

Don’t get fooled by tool packs that come with nail gun, air-hose and compressor in one deal you will be looking for a new compressor soon.

I’ve had mine for four years now. It’s quiet, powerful and never gives me any trouble. I’ve used it to run nailers in remodeling my house, fill tires on occasion, run my Critter spray gun and blow dust out of corners in my shop. I loaned it to a friend for a month so he could build a back porch. Still looks and runs like new. From what I’m told, it’s hard to wear these out, and if you do, Thomas has the parts to do an easy rebuild.

Update: It’s been eight years now since I bought it for a home remodeling project. It’s still driving nails, spraying paint and varnish, filling tires, and blowing dust, and it still works like it did when it was new.
