All Boss air tanks are manufactured from aluminium. This keeps weight down and eliminates internal rust, which is a common issue with steel tanks, especially in humid environments or where moisture is not drained regularly.

Yes. Even though aluminium tanks do not rust internally, moisture from compressed air still collects in the system. Periodic draining removes water and helps protect valves, airbags and other components from corrosion and contamination.

The ideal tank size depends on how the system is used. Load Assist kits that only adjust airbag pressures can run on a small tank or even no tank with a suitable compressor. Full air suspension, frequent ride-height changes, tyre inflation or air tools all benefit from a larger tank. Bigger tanks provide more usable air but take longer to fill.

Tank fill time depends on several factors – compressor output, duty cycle, tank volume, system pressure and ambient conditions. Because these vary widely between setups, there is no single accurate fill time that applies to every combination. It is better to size the compressor and tank based on how often and how quickly you need to use the air.
