CPLDC2541S (Type 2) Porter Cable Compressor - Overview

This is an authentic Porter Cable replacement part manufactured for use with air compressors. This dipstick is used to measure the oil inside the pump, and to seal the oil filler. The dipstick is sold as an individual replacement part.

This safety valve is a genuine replacement part manufactured for use with air compressors. If the compressor's pressure switch malfunctions, and does not turn the motor off when the amount of pressure is met, the safety valve will open to release the extra air pressure. The amount of pressure required to open the safety valve is set by te...Read morension of the spring inside the valve. The spring can wear out, and leave the valve open at a lower pressure than what is set to turn the switch off, and will not allow pressure to build inside the tank. This safety valve has a thread sealant pre-applied, so additional thread sealant is not required, the safety valve is sold individually.

This replacement screw is a genuine OEM sourced item commonly utilized on air compressors and pressure washers. It is a standard hardware which has multiple applications depending on the unit. Please make sure to check diagrams of your model for the correct location and used of this screw. This part is made from durable metal and it is sold individually. You will need a wrench to install or remove this hardware.

This is an OEM replacement part used on Air Compressors. The gauge registers pressure readings and allows you to maintain needed pressure. This Gauge is Sold Individually. You would need a Wrench to secure this Gauge to the Manifold. When replacing this item make sure to unplug the air compressor and bleed out air from the tank.

This replacement valve plate assembly is a high quality item designed for use on Craftsman air compressors. It is a genuine manufacturer sourced item that is used to control the airflow into the cylinder.

Purchasing spare screws is also encouraged, as they can wear out over time and regular use. A hex key and a screwdriver are helpful in the removal and replacement.

O-rings are made to contain thousands of PSI pressure by creating a seal between two or more parts. O-ring measurements are defined by the inside diameter and the thickness. rnrnThere are many causes for O-Ring failure. The most common among power tools are: • Extrusion and Nibbling - The O-ring has ragged, tattered edges. ...Read moreThese are commonly caused by pressure spikes which shear off tiny "bites" from the o-ring, or caused by clearance gaps. • Abrasion - One or both sides of the o-ring appear rough and slightly flattened. Commonly caused by a contact surface that it too rough, contains grit or is too smooth to allow lubrication. • Over Compression - The O-ring is flattened on both sides and may have a "ring" split along its length. Commonly caused by excessive pressure or heat. • Heat Hardening - The O-ring has a pitted or cracked surface, and is often flattened on both sides. Caused by temperature exceeding o-ring capacity. • Weather/Ozone Cracking - The O-ring is covered in small surface cracks. Caused by exposure to ozone, UV rays and air pollution. Excessive seal stretching (greater that 5%) causes similar cracking.
