Wish I'd bought one years ago. - Having owned and used several consumer-level tyre inflators over many years of car and motorcycle use, i started looking around for a replacement when the last of cheap ones died. I wanted something that was durable, not encased in cheap plastic, with long cables and hoses and good durability. And a mechanical gauge. No batteries or electronics. The Ring RAC900 delivers all this and more. The unit itself is reassuringly solid yet compact. The cylinder has cooling fins to enable sustained operation. Hardware is all metal. Nothing plastic to break off with age or chemical / UV weakening. Even the power switch is protected from the elements by a transparent rubber cover. All air fittings have a reassuringly solid feel, from the heavy rubber outlet hose at the compressor end through the coiled extendable hose to the brass push-fit connections. There's even a proper analogue air pressure gauge encased in protective rubber. The power cord is long and the crocodile clips of a good size and solid construction. In use, the unit is noticeably quieter than all my previous inflators. It makes very short work of pumping up tyres. Better even than some garage forecourt ones. I added 20PSI to a space saver spare in probably 30 seconds. The supplied pressure gauge is not too accurate, however. I stopped the inflation dead on 60PSI, then measured the tyre using a calibrated gauge, which showed just over 55psi. Still, that's a little under a 10% discrepancy, which is very acceptable for a unit of this modest price. The whole thing is housed in a fitted durable looking bag, which is a far better option than the usual blow-moulded plastic case that you tend to find on consumer products. Even at the full price this is a bargain. At the £79.99 that I paid, it was a steal. Highly recommended. Review: A quality product - 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. ## Features - SPECIFICATIONS: Voltage: 12V DC, Wattage: 280W, AmpsOutput: 23A, Power Cable Length (m): 2.4 - Pressure gauge in PSI, kg/cm2, BAR for accurate inflation - BREAKDOWN PROFESSIONALS: Used by industry experts, this tyre inflator delivers reliable performance when you need it most - PORTABLE: Includes a storage bag for easy transportation and convenient storage in your vehicle - VERSATILE: Ideal for inflating various types of tyres, whether it's on a car, bike, or other vehicles - CONVENIENT: Don't get caught out with low tyre pressure - have this handy air compressor ready for use whenever needed ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000W08QZY | | Air Flow Capacity | 55 Litres Per Minute | | Best Sellers Rank | 5,677 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 87 in Portable Air Compressors | | Brand | RING | | Capacity | 55 litres | | Colour | Without Led Light | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,306 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05055175210735 | | Hose Length | 7 Metres | | Included Components | RAC900 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 34L x 20.6W x 23.2H centimetres | | Item Type Name | RING RAC900 High Load Compressor, Air Compressor, Air Compressor | | Item Weight | 3.72 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Ring Automotive | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 2. | | Material | Metal | | Maximum Horsepower | 0.25 Horsepower | | Maximum Power | 280 Watts | | Maximum Pressure | 1 Bars | | Model Name | Ring Automotive Tyre Inflator | | Model Number | RAC900 | | Noise level | 90 Decibels | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | RAC900 | | Power source | Vehicle Powered | | Recommended Uses For Product | Tire Inflation | | Recommended uses for product | Tire Inflation | | Sound Level | 90 Decibels | | Special Features | Heavy Duty | | Special feature | Heavy Duty | | Style | Heavy Duty Inflator | | Tank Volume | 55 Litres | | Voltage | 12 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** RING - **Noise level:** 90 Decibels - **Power source:** Vehicle Powered - **Recommended uses for product:** Tire Inflation - **Voltage:** 12 Volts ## Images ![RING Heavy Duty Tyre Inflator, 12V DC Air Compressor | 280W Power, 23A Output, 2.4m Cable, Includes Storage Bag, Ideal for Cars & Bikes - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61At2DaNEWL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: hi, does the connector kit supplied fit standard caravan tyre valves?** A: In my experience all tyre valves are a standard size, trucks,cars,vans, caravans, trolleys,wheelbarrows etc. etc so yes. **Q: Would it be possible to use a air gun on this** A: Not really, may be a short high-pressure blast, but only a second or two, you need a air tank type compressor to use an air gun at any real volume and pressure. what you could do is pressure an old tyre up and conect an air gun to that, that will give you 40psi and a good amount of air. **Q: Hi was just wondering do you know if you can get attachment for this to inflate things like childrens inflatable toys? Thanks** A: Hi, It comes complete with several different attachments for various inflatable toys,footballs, beds, etc,I have only used the tyre attachment and so far so good. **Q: Is there a nozzle you can attach which is quick on/off? It's for mountain board tyres, otherwise when you unscrew, half the air escapes.** A: The end of the nozzle screws onto the tyre valve in the same way any tyre pump does. Do mountain board tyres not have a valve to stop the air from escaping ? You would need to unscrew the nozzle quickly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding.

Nicely engineered with quality parts it runs quietly and effortlessly to inflate van tyres and is worth the money. Full marks. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb. Pumped to 80 PSI without breaking a sweat. *by X***R on 20 April 2026* Superb. Three other tyre inflators failed (two broke down - permanently - one of them being the "heavy duty" Ring RAC830) and they also blew "cigar lighter" fuses while trying to pump up my motorhome's tyres to 80PSI. This, connected directly to the battery, simply breezed through that task and didn't break a sweat. It may not look fancy; it may not be "digital"; and it may seem expensive but it feels really like a solid piece of engineering as soon as you get it out of the box and it simply does the job; reliably! Highly recommended. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ring Automotive Tyre Inflator Collection - Draper Tyre Pressure Gauge with Flexible Hose | Handheld Dual Reading Gauge | Car Tyre Pressure Gauge | 69924, Blue --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/48162071-ring-heavy-duty-tyre-inflator-12v-dc-air-compressor-280w](https://www.desertcart.us/products/48162071-ring-heavy-duty-tyre-inflator-12v-dc-air-compressor-280w) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-15*
