About this product
This unbranded 1.5HP air compressor motor operates at 1725 RPM on single-phase AC power, supporting both 115V and 230V at 60Hz. It features a 56C NEMA frame, a 5/8" keyed shaft, and is reversible for flexible installation. The motor utilizes a rolled steel enclosure and has a service factor of 1.15. It comes with a 1-month manufacturer warranty.
Our take
If you're looking for a 1.5HP motor for your air compressor, this unbranded unit offers decent core specs. The dual voltage (115V, 230V) and 1725 RPM make it a versatile replacement option for many single-phase setups. I particularly like that it's reversible, which can simplify installation and ensure correct rotation for your compressor pump. The 56C frame and 5/8" keyed shaft are standard, and the 1.15 service factor indicates it can handle occasional overloads. However, the rolled steel enclosure is less robust than TEFC, and the 1-month warranty is quite limited, which are important considerations.
