What size copper tubing do i need to run 17 cfm @ 100psi 100 ft long?

Anthony, a good question.

The longer and smaller the tube, the more fittings, the more the pressure drop.

The question is, perhaps, how much air do you need at the end where your tool is?

More on that here. Have a read of the pages linked from this one for more specific info.

Cheers,

Bill
