      Ross-da prez-has a C H air compressor that on the side states-Super Pal. It is a flat opposed twin design with reed valves in the heads and powered by a 1 H P electric motor. Ross has entered the model # and Serial # with No joy. I have entered the Super Pal and later reed valve valved air compressors at the C H website and you guessed it-No joy. Does anyone here have knowledge of what we believe to be an older C H home compressor? Ross believes he may be able to fab up new reed valves from old feeler gage stock but some of the other needs may have to be purchased. As Aways T I A for any and all considerations.  cooldude RIDE SAFE.

I had a Walmart Campbell Hausfield (single 2 gal sausage tube) for many years, until just weeks ago.  It finally gave up the ghost. 

It wasn't a collectors edition, so I put it in the dumper.   Grin

Sorry, no help.

On the https://www.campbellhausfeld.com/parts.html website, under service and support, is a list of suppliers of parts for the CAMPBELL Hausfeld  compressors.  As for reed valves, yes feelers gauges will work quite well.  I have done that before in other compressors.

All 2-stroke outboard engines ran on reed valves in the intakes. Not sure what yours are like or how many petals but at least I can give you another source for them.

Went through similar episode with a Dayton (Grainger unit) First parts were nla.
 
Then they found info related to C/H, still no availability.

Third attempt got a retired, part time parts man.

Parts ordered and arrived, head and reed plate items had Speed Aire labels. Quite pricy but done.
