Is there a difference between the hpa and compressed air? Second, is there any difference between those two and the compressed air that most people fill their tires with? |

To get High Pressure Air (HPA), you need to COMPRESS it.

air out of an industrial compressor will generally not have the types of filters that a high pressure compressor will have.
if you get water, oil, or dirt in a 3000-5000 psi tank you can have explosions. ------------- saving the world, one warship at a time. |
