Mechpro Air Compressor 2.5hp 180L/min 40L - MPB2540

Mechpro 2.5HP Hi-Flow Air Compressor

High Performance for Garage and Workshop Use

The Mechpro 2.5HP Hi-Flow Air Compressor is an essential piece of equipment for car enthusiasts and DIYers looking to power high pressure and high flow pneumatic tools. With a direct drive motor delivering 2.5 horsepower, this compressor provides both maximum performance and efficiency, ideal for a wide range of automotive tasks.

Its single cylinder pump, combined with an aluminium crankcase, head, and valve plate, helps dissipate heat efficiently, allowing for longer runtimes and consistent power delivery. This design also contributes to the compressor’s durability and reliability for workshop and garage use.

Air Delivery and Tank Capacity

Boasting a displacement of 270 litres per minute and a free air delivery (F.A.D) of 180 litres per minute, this compressor is well suited to operate pneumatic tools such as impact wrenches, spray guns, sanders, and grinders used in panel repair, tyre inflation, and various mechanical tasks.

The 40-litre tank stores enough compressed air to support continuous or intermittent air tool use, reducing downtime caused by frequent motor cycling. This capacity strikes a practical balance between storage and portability for garage applications.

User-Friendly Controls and Maintenance

Designed for ease of operation, the compressor features convenient controls including a quick-set regulator, vessel pressure gauge, and output gauge, allowing users to easily adjust and monitor air pressure. The simple on/off switch facilitates quick starts and stops as required.

Maintenance is straightforward thanks to stainless steel reed valves and a 2.6mm plain carbon steel tank engineered for durability. A screw-type drain valve on the tank makes moisture removal simple, preventing corrosion and maintaining air quality.

The compressor ships with oil already filled in the crankcase, requiring only the installation of a vented oil breather after unpacking. This ensures the unit is ready to use promptly while reducing set-up time.
