The VS6231, 4.5 Peak HP Oil-Lubricated, Belt-Drive compressor has a cast iron, single cylinder pump for extreme durability. The 20 Gallon horizontal tank delivers 6.4/5.6 SCFM @ 40/90 PSI and the low RPM pump promotes long life and quiet operation. The VS6231 has a maximum pressure of 125 PSI.

IRs are great if you want to drop the coin and plan on using it alot. I wanted one, but couldn't justify the price difference for the amount of use it would get in my garage.
