I have an old compressor I purchased and have been restoring. Problem is that it does not have a belt guard on it. I have been unsuccessful in comtacting Industrial Air of Minnesota. I believe that they made tanks for several name brands. Does anyone out here have an Idea what brand or model may ave one to fit? I know I can make one but before I go through reinventing the wheel I thought I'd check here first. This one is a 60 gallon 5 horse power 125 pound set point. I believe that Sears and Coleman may have built units like this. It has five mounting points for the guard, one on top of the air pump, one on the frame next to the motor and three on the belt side of the mounting frame. Any would be apperciated.

I can't quite make out the Model number line on the plate. Can you provide it?

Pending that info, this looks like a possibility:

Or this very pricey one...

Or it could be the smaller types shown here:

87bobjames,

I would just build my own like I did on my 58' old compressor restoration project, it was quite fun. All you need is some angle iron, sheet metal mesh, a "borrowed" Harbor Freight Brake/Shear, a hacksaw, electric drill, and a mig welder along with some basic fabrication skills. PM me if you have any questions
