Portable gasoline compressor 3.2 L - 5 HP Honda engine and 7 bar
The reason this unit exists is simple: there are sites, farms and roads where there is no socket. With a 5 HP Honda GP160 engine, this compressor delivers 235 L/min at 7 bar in the middle of the countryside, with no generator or mains connection.
The 3.2-litre tank and tubular frame with anti-vibration feet make it the lightest and most manageable in the petrol range: one person can load it onto the back of a pick-up and have it working in two minutes. And the Honda engine is what it is: it starts first time after months of standing idle, which is exactly what you need from a field machine.

💡 Pro tip: the number one fault on petrol compressors is not the compressor, it is a carburettor clogged by stale petrol. If the unit is going to stand idle for more than a month, close the fuel tap and leave it running until it stalls: this empties the float bowl and prevents gum from forming. It is the difference between starting first time in spring and taking it to the workshop.
Frequently asked questions
What is this 3.2-litre petrol compressor for?
It is designed for sites, farms and roads where there is no socket: nailing, stapling, blowing and tyre inflation outdoors. Its 3.2-litre tank makes it the lightest and most manageable in the petrol range.
What air delivery and pressure does the 5 HP Honda GP160 engine provide?
It delivers 235 L/min with a maximum pressure of 7 bar. That is enough for moderate-consumption site air tools.
Can I use it inside a garage, industrial unit or trench?
No. Because it has a petrol engine, it produces exhaust gases containing carbon monoxide, an odourless and dangerous gas. Always use it outdoors, in a well-ventilated area and with the exhaust pointing away from you.
