Gasoline compressor 20 L - Honda 4 HP motor and 10 bar with wheels
20-litre petrol compressor with Honda engine
Compared with the 3-litre model, this one steps up to 10 bar of pressure and a 20-litre air tank. That combination completely changes the kind of work you can do: with 10 bar to start from there is headroom for a long hose and tools that genuinely need pressure, and with 20 litres of reserve the engine does not have to be revving all the time.
It has a Honda GP160 engine and large-diameter pneumatic wheels with a handle, designed to roll over gravel and earth, not the smooth floor of a workshop. It is the general-purpose petrol compressor for building sites and the countryside.

📋 Technical specifications
Engine: Honda GP160
Power: 4 HP
Maximum pressure: 10 bar
Flow rate: 235 L/min
Air tank capacity: 20 litres
Fuel: petrol
💡 Professional tip: a petrol compressor is not regulated by the pressure switch, it is regulated by the throttle. Many users leave it at full throttle all day and burn through fuel and engine. Lower the engine speed when the air tank is full and raise it only when you really call for air: you will use considerably less fuel and the engine will last much longer.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between this 20-litre model and a 3-litre one?
It steps up to a maximum pressure of 10 bar, compared with the 7 bar of the compact model, and to a 20-litre air tank. With that reserve the engine does not have to be revving all the time and it can handle a long hose and tools that need more pressure.
What flow does the 4 HP Honda GP160 engine give?
The compressor delivers 235 L/min at a maximum pressure of 10 bar. It is a general-purpose unit for building sites and the countryside without a mains supply.
Can it be moved easily around a site?
It has large-diameter pneumatic wheels with a handle, designed to roll over gravel and earth. The weight of the unit is not stated in the specification sheet.
How do I save fuel with this compressor?
A petrol compressor is regulated with the throttle, not with the pressure switch. Lower the engine speed when the air tank is full and raise it only when you need air: you will use less fuel and the engine will suffer less.
Can I use it in an enclosed space?
No. The petrol engine emits toxic exhaust gases, so it must always be used outdoors or in very well-ventilated areas. The fuel and engine oil are those indicated in the Honda manufacturer's manual.
