Re: bendix westinghouse compressor
Can we see a picture? I might have some information. If it's a wheel barrow style one I know I want one.

Re: bendix westinghouse compressor
this compressor has the large steel wheel in front, I think about 3 inches wide and about 12 inches in dia. looks like you pick up on rear framework and wheel around, would mainly like to know where this was used right now thanks steve.

Re: bendix westinghouse compressor
That's what we colloquially call the wheelbarrow compressor because of it's resemblance to a wheelbarrow. The USAAF would use them for line maintenance. They were also part of the 2nd Echelon Tool Set No. 1 and I think No. 2 for airing up vehicle tires and providing air for the pneumatic grease guns.

Re: bendix westinghouse compressor
I have one but it’s missing the motor, side cover and possibly a few small parts. I would like to locate these parts. Thanks
