It can accommodate 60 gallons of compressed air which allows for longer run times of air tools such as ratchets, impacts, spray guns, hammers, and many more. The tank is ASME certified so you are guaranteed to have a reservoir that has met the minimum requirements for safety and efficiency.

Husky 60 gallon air compressor C601H also has a heavy duty induction motor that has a power output of 3.7 horsepower. This output can definitely maximize the performance of your pneumatic tools.

The pump and the motor ensures the optimum efficiency and reliability of the Husky air compressor.

    I have the same air compressor. Purchased it just before Halloween and it worked great till the other day. Now when I turn it on it turns a little and then pops the breaker. It will run with the belt off and everything turns freely but as soon as I hook it all up same thing….. motor turns the pump like a eighth of a turn and then pops the breaker. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you
