Our take
For anyone with a Rolair electric, portable, reciprocating air compressor that's having trouble starting, this capacitor appears to be a direct replacement part. With a rating of 710-850 MFD at 125 Volts, it's designed to provide the necessary burst of power to get the motor going. It’s critical to match these specs for proper operation, and the included model numbers (5715K17, MTRC101) should help confirm compatibility. It's not a full compressor, but a vital component to keep a portable electric unit running, and the price point reflects it being a specific part rather than a complete machine.
