AIRnet Compressed Air Piping Systems

AIRnet builds complete, modular compressed air piping systems engineered to move clean, dry air from the compressor to every point of use with the lowest possible pressure drop. Backed by Atlas Copco's industrial pedigree, AIRnet replaces corroded black iron and leaky threaded joints with lightweight, push-to-connect networks that install in a fraction of the time and perform for decades. Best of all, AIRnet comes in three materials — aluminum, stainless steel, and polyamide — so you can match the system to your facility, your air-quality needs, and your budget. At the Warthog Air Compressor Store, we stock the full AIRnet lineup and ship it fast.

Why choose AIRnet

• Lowest possible pressure drop — smooth internal bores create very little friction, so more of the pressure your compressor produces actually reaches your tools.
• Leak-free from compressor to point of use — purpose-built seals and mechanical joints eliminate the slow leaks that waste energy in threaded and glued systems.
• Certified clean air — every AIRnet material is certified to ISO 8573-1, so the piping never becomes a source of contamination.
• Fast, flexible installation — push-to-connect and press-fit joints mean no welding, threading, or cure time, and the modular design lets you expand or reroute without shutting down production.
• 10-year warranty — guaranteed clean air from generation to point of use, backed by the manufacturer.

AIRnet aluminum air pipe — the all-around standard

For the vast majority of industrial and shop compressed air systems, AIRnet aluminum is the right choice. It offers the best balance of cost, weight, and performance, which is why aluminum has become the industry standard for complete air piping.

Traditional black iron and threaded steel pipe starts corroding the moment moist compressed air hits the inside wall. That rust flakes off, contaminates your tools, restricts flow, and roughens the bore so pressure drop climbs year after year. AIRnet aluminum doesn't corrode, so the bore stays smooth and the air stays clean for the life of the system. The advantages add up quickly:

• Anti-corrosive and contamination-free — a clean, smooth bore that protects downstream equipment.
• Lightweight and easy to handle — a fraction of the weight of steel, so one or two people can route it overhead safely and fast.
• Low pressure drop and leak-free joints — certified 1:2:0 class aluminum to ISO 8573-1, with adapted seals throughout.
• Modular and future-proof — add a drop, move a branch, or expand the network without welders or downtime.
• Built to last decades — backed by the 10-year warranty.

Aluminum assembles without threading dies, pipe dope, or torches — pipe is cut, deburred, and pushed into the fitting until it seats. That dramatically cuts the installation labor where the real cost of a piping project usually hides. Whether you're piping a single-bay shop, retrofitting a corroded steel system, or building out a new industrial facility, aluminum is the workhorse.

AIRnet stainless steel — for high-purity and critical environments

When air purity can't be compromised, AIRnet stainless steel delivers 100% oil-free, contamination-free air from generation to point of use. It's the standard for industries where compressed air touches sensitive products or regulated processes — pharmaceutical and healthcare, food and beverage, and chemical and process applications — and it's equally suited to compressed air, vacuum, and inert gas service.

• 100% oil-free air delivery in compliance with the highest quality standards.
• FDA-approved fittings with FKM seals, silicone-free and Teflon-free, so nothing leaches into the air stream.
• Corrosion- and contamination-free with minimal frictional losses and ISO 8573-1 certification.
• Press-fit technology — roughly 65% faster and cheaper than welding, with no hot-work permits or cure time.

Stainless is a premium material, so it's worth reserving for applications where air quality is genuinely critical — but where it matters, nothing else compares.

AIRnet polyamide — lightweight piping for workshops

You don't need an industrial-scale install to get clean, efficient air. AIRnet polyamide — the poly/plastic system — gives smaller shops a lightweight, leak-free network you can install yourself in no time. It's the practical choice when you're running a modest set of pneumatic tools but still want reliable airflow and minimal pressure drop.

• Optimal airflow — frictionless piping and seals, no leakage, minimal pressure drops.
• Corrosion- and contamination-free for clean, consistent production.
• Lightweight and DIY-friendly — push-to-connect assembly with no welding or threading.
• Fully modular — add or relocate drops as your shop layout changes.

It's ideal for growing shops, home garages, and light commercial spaces that want professional-grade air distribution without a contractor.

Which AIRnet material is right for you?

• Aluminum — the best all-around choice for general industrial and shop air. Start here unless you have a specific reason not to.
• Stainless steel — for pharma, food and beverage, and process environments where 100% oil-free, contamination-free air is required.
• Polyamide — a lightweight, economical option for smaller workshops and lighter pneumatic-tool duty.

Across every material, the single biggest factor in performance is sizing the pipe to your peak CFM demand with room to grow, keeping runs direct, and using a loop layout in larger shops to feed air from two directions.
