What you get with a petrol air compressor

Pilot Air petrol compressors are built to handle hard use, frequent starts, and continuous running on demanding jobs. Our standard offering includes models up to 28 CFM (FAD), powered by genuine Honda petrol engines, making them ideal for:

  • Mobile mechanics and maintenance units
  • Off-grid construction and civil sites
  • Spray painting, tyre inflation, and air tools in the field
  • Agricultural repairs and fencing crews

Each compressor is mounted on an air receiver, making it easy to bolt down or to mount on a trailer. No power leads, no generators, just dependable air, wherever you need it.

Mobile compressor and pump servicing with Air & Power

Thinking beyond petrol?

Petrol units are a good fit where portability and independence from mains power are essential. But they’re not always the most efficient option long-term.

You might be better off with:

Rotary Screw Compressors

For continuous use, lower noise, and higher energy efficiency. Ideal for fixed plant or workshops with 3-phase power.

Diesel Compressors

For even higher output, often mounted to service vehicles or trailers. Suited for large-scale field operations where petrol doesn’t cut it.

Stationary Electric Compressors

For base workshops or indoor use where power is consistent and noise control matters.

Not sure what’s right? We’ll help you weigh up total running cost, output needs, duty cycle, and service frequency.

Maintenance and servicing

Petrol compressors need regular servicing, often more than electric units, especially in dusty, remote conditions. That’s where our technician-led support makes a difference. We schedule servicing based on usage, calendar, and provide full maintenance reporting and compliance records.

Our support covers:

  • Oil and filter changes
  • Belt and bearing checks
  • Safety valve testing
  • Vibration and wear inspection
  • Pressure vessel compliance

Pricing and availability

Our petrol-powered compressors start from $3,157 + GST for the K17PH model. This unit comes with a 100L receiver, a reliable Honda GX160 engine, and delivers 5.5HP of output. Mounted on wheels and weighing in at 100kg, it’s ideal for mobile tradies, farm use, or ute-mounted setups.

Need something custom? We can supply standard units fast or tailor a setup to suit service vehicles and trailers.

Our services include:

  • Supply only
  • Supply and install (including ute or trailer fit-outs)
  • Scheduled maintenance packages
  • On-site inspections for fleet servicing
