Heavy Duty Tyre Inflator - High Power Air Compressor as Used by Breakdown Professionals

Having bought other cheaper compressors that all failed to inflate my van tyres to 80psi or struggled and overheated it was a real pleasure to use this item that does exactly what it claims. Nicely engineered with quality parts it runs quietly and effortlessly to inflate van tyres and is worth the money. Full marks.

I have had a Ring RAC750 for a couple of years and never been completely happy with it, I had assumed being mains powered it would be powerful and quick, but it wasn't. This year it has stopped working, I can hear an air-leak inside, but I could not figure out how to open it to access the internals. So, I decided to buy a new compressor. I was a bit dubious about a compressor powered off the car battery, but I need not have been. First impressions are that this RAC900 is a well made piece of equipment, presented in a really useful carry bag. I like especially that there are 2 compartments allowing to keep the hose separate from the compressor itself, and the smaller size of the compartment for the hose will help keep it tidy and untangled. One small but excellent improvement/addition would be a small pocket for the adaptors. The fitting to the tyre valve screws-on, which is very secure. am happy it does not use one of the fiddly fittings with a plastic lever to lock it in place (or let it fall off part way through, or wear out and stop locking). I had a car tyre that had deflated to less than 1 bar and it was pressured up to 2.2 bars in around 90 seconds using the RAC900. I am happy with the accuracy of the pressure gauge, I checked the reading against 2 hand-held gauges that I have, one dial gauge and one LCD electronic gauge. All readings agree. Once the air-hose is screwed onto the tyre valve, you can inflate and deflate the tyre without removing the fitting. Just stop the pump to check the tyre pressure reading. The instructions are very easy to follow. The power lead, and air hose are both well long enough to make using this compressor very straightforward and convenient. All round it is a well thought out piece of equipment, which is not always the case from any/all manufacturers. I highly recommend this pump. The RAC900 is almost everything the RAC750 isn't, and is well worth the additional cost. Edit: 4 Oct 2018...used this for around a month, and it is superb, I am VERY happy with it. I had a leaking tyre and this was handy to keep it topped up. I then deflated my tyres completely and added a chemical to each to seal small punctures (Goop - available on Amazon). Inflating each tyre from completely empty was a doddle. The carry case sits in the boot of my car, taking up little space and keeping everything handy, and tidy. I cannot recommend it highly enough. EDIT_ Feb 2019: still using this compressor. It is excellent and so much more convenient than trying to find a garage with a working airline, or then needing the correct coins. EDIT_May 2020: still using this, it lives in the boot of my car, a great piece of kit.

....on a compressor, and this is the one you should spend it on! I bought this after reading reviews on a few sites,not just on here. Nearly all said that this is an excellent piece of kit, and they were right. I bought this compressor because, as a caravan owner, I regularly need to inflate my car tyres at home and on site. I was fed up with paying £20 or more for 'top of the range' foot pumps, and having all of them wear out in no more than 18 months. So, add that up and it probably comes to more than I paid for this one. The compressor comes in a very useful bag, and the kit is lighter, smaller and quieter than I imagined. It inflates my tyres from around 30psi to 47 psi in about 2 1/2 minutes. Very quick and easy compared to anything else I have used at home. The couplings are all good quality and everything seems geared to professional use. The valve attachment is a screw thread, so you don't have to wait at the tyre when inflating. It can also be used to deflate as well. Check that you can access your battery easily because the unit cannot be plugged in to a lighter plug. I am very pleased with this kit. Only time will tell though........ I rated it as four stars because I have only owned it for a short while. 16/09/2012 I have changed the rating to five stars now. I have been using this for six months, and it is a quality product. Light enough to take away on caravanning holidays and certainly up to the job I bought it for.

Needed a new inflator for 7.5 m Motorhome inflating up to 80 PSI small enough to stow away and big enough to cope, and this seemed to fit the bill. It connect to the Vans (Fiat Ducato) jumpstart point under the bonnet. With the long flex tail it just reaches both rear wheels. (About 6 m) I had to deflate the tyre to about 70 PSI to test it and it inflated back to 75PSI in very short time. Didn’t time it, but less than a minute so a great study product. Now for the negative. Would be great if the el cable were a bit longer, 7.5 m Motorhome is about the limit. The gauge is very inaccurate. You will need an alternative gauge to check the pressure. It would be nice if the gauge came with switch off. On this version you have to connect the tube. Walk back to pump to switch on, then return to check the pressure, which seems about 5-7 PSI above what you want, then return to the pump and switch off. (Or be two of you) In conclusion. The pump is great, the attachment has room for improvement.

Good product

Great compressor! Quiet and powerful. Superior to the two PI compressors I bought of which one burnt out topping of travel trailer tires. Allthough this one is triple the price of the popular PI but we’ll worth it based on my experience.

Ich habe das Gerät bereits zum 2. Mal gekauft. Nämlich für meinen Vater, der mein Gerät im Einsatz gesehen hat. Mein Kaufgrund war, dass ich einen Wohnwagen mit Reifen mit C-Karkasse ziehe. Vor jeder Abfahrt prüfe ich gern die Luft im Reifen, da ein 13-Meter Gespann bei falschem Reifendruck nur kurz Spaß macht. Ich kann also den Kompressor direkt an die Batterie meines Zugfahrzeugs (im Motorraum) anschließen und den Schlauch bis zum jeweiligen Reifen ziehen, wenn der Wohnwagen angekoppelt ist! Wie oft im Leben: Die Länge zählt! Der Kompressor leistet unglaublich. Der wird natürlich ziemlich warm, wenn er einen fast leeren Reifen aufpumpt. Da mein Reifen 4,5 bar benötigt, hat er aber auch zu tun. Ich kann den Kompressor trotz des Preises von deutlich über 100 € uneingeschränkt empfehlen!

Excellent produit, gonfle rapidement, puissant! A voir dans le temps! Je recommande

Supera las expectativas, lo uso para todo, incluido vehiculos agricolas y funciona de maravilla.
