Airline tyre inflator with digital gauge, up to 17 bar
Airline tyre inflator with digital gauge – you read the tyre pressure on the display while you inflate, and the built-in LED light helps when the light is poor.
An airline tyre inflator is a hand-held gun that fills a tyre from compressed air. This one takes a compressor or workshop air line on its G 1/4 inlet and passes the air through a 50 cm rubber hose to a car-type valve. The digital display shows the pressure in bar, PSI, kg/cm² or kPa, up to 17 bar. It inflates, deflates and checks tyres on cars, motorbikes and bicycles with car-type valves.
If you inflate by guesswork and keep putting a separate gauge on the valve between bursts, this gun does both jobs. The display shows the pressure while you hold the lever down, and you let go when you reach your number.
At a glance
- Reads up to: 17 bar
- Units: PSI, bar, kg/cm², kPa
- Connection: G 1/4 air inlet, 50 cm rubber hose, car-type valve fitting
- For: car, motorbike and bicycle tyres (lorries: see below)
- Power: rechargeable battery, USB-C charging
Key benefits
- Pressure while you inflate: the display keeps reading with the lever held down, so you do not stop to check with a second gauge.
- Four units: choose PSI, bar, kg/cm² or kPa, so the figure on the door-pillar sticker or in the handbook goes in without converting.
- Built-in LED light: you can see what you are doing in poor light or at night.
- Rechargeable battery, USB-C: charge it with the cable in the box. No batteries to buy.
- Aluminium alloy body with a PET elastomer coating: a sturdy build for everyday use.
- Built-in hanging hook: hang it on a hook so it is at hand and not at the bottom of a drawer.
- Three adapters and a spare seal: both are in the box.
It is new in our range. We brought it in because we have been outfitting truck drivers since 1991, and we know what they need on the road.
What you need to run the airline tyre inflator
It needs compressed air. The inlet is G 1/4, so you connect a compressor or an air line to it. The rechargeable battery powers the display and the light, it does not pump air. There is no compressor in the box.
Cars, motorbikes, bicycles: the gun is for tyres with car-type valves, and it reads up to 17 bar.
Lorries: whether it suits a lorry tyre depends on the pressure that tyre needs and on the tool's capacity.
What it is not for
It does not stop by itself. There is no automatic pressure cut-off, no preset target pressure and no pressure memory. You watch the display and release the lever when you reach the pressure you want.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a compressor?
Yes. The airline tyre inflator runs on compressed air: a compressor or an air line connects to the G 1/4 inlet. The battery powers the display and the light.
Can I see the pressure while I inflate?
Yes. The display on the airline tyre inflator keeps showing the pressure while you hold the lever down.
How high does it read?
Up to 17 bar. You can switch the display between PSI, bar, kg/cm² and kPa.
Does it stop at the pressure I want?
No. The airline tyre inflator has no automatic cut-off and no preset target, so you release the lever when the display shows your pressure.
Can I use it on a lorry tyre?
It depends. The airline tyre inflator reads up to 17 bar, but whether it can inflate a lorry tyre depends on the pressure that tyre needs and on the tool's capacity.
How do I charge it?
With the USB-C cable in the box.
If you have a compressor or an air line and want to see the pressure while you inflate, this gun will suit you.
