Viair 45043 450P Automatic Function Portable Compressor
The Viair 450P-A is a workhorse of a compressor. It features a powerful constant duty Viair 400-series compressor at its core. This pump was designed to run for an hour continuously in its regular use. This powerhouse can fill a 31in (by 10.5in) in about 4 minutes and is perfect for off-road use. The compressor is completely weatherproof and can be run outside without a problem. Additionally, this next-generation portable compressor features an automatic pressure regulator. What this means is your compressor will shut off as soon as the attached hose pressurizes to 150 PSI. This both prevents damage from over-pressurizing the head of the air compressor and provides you with instant air when you top up your tires with the tire inflation gun. This package includes the Viair 450P-A compressor, heavy duty battery clips, a coil hose with gas station style tire inflation gun, pressure gauge, and a convenient carrying case.
User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Portable, fast source for compressed air.
I have an Airstream trailer in storage and the tires were a bit low. Foot pumps were tried to keep the pressure up, but they were useless. This pump, with its start-up at 120psi and shut-off at 145psi is just like having a compressed air tank. The hose is long enough to reach both sides of a 30′ trailer without relocating the compressor. The valve clamp is metal and connects securely. The gauge and hand control are easy to read and operate. It was so fast taking the air pressure from 15psi to the 60psi that it was almost embarrassing. The process of filling four tires, including cool-down, was only 15 minutes.
5 Stars impressive portable compressor
I use this compressor everytime I go camping. Last weekend I aired up 2 air bags on my pickup and notice both rear tires where down about 10 psi. This compressor did both tires and both air bags in about 5 minutes and compressor was barely warm. It is expensive, but you get what you pay for.
5 Stars Best little portable 12v compressor out there
I purchased this product a couple of weeks ago to “air-up” the tires on my FJ Curiser after wheeling on the beach. I have tried other units over the past 20 years or so and they never really did the job, but this one performed better than I could have hoped. I was able to “air-up” all 4 tires from 18lbs to 35lbs in about 15 minutes.
I was very pleased with the quick connect inflation hose, with tire inflation gun and the rubber over mold pressure gauge. They all worked very well and easy to monitor prersure while filling. The compressor itself appreas to be very well made and heavy duty and very easy to set up, use and put away – the hardest part was opening the hood of my truck to get to the battery.
I highly recomend this product and the seller, Central 4 Wheel Drive. The item shipped fast and was packed up very well.
5 Stars The mother of all portable compressors!
If you’re tired of those cheap plastic compressors which last a year or two, then this is the unit which you need.
I doubt that you can wear out or break this compressor in a million years – it’s the Rolls Royce of compressors. Very glad that I got it!
