Rolair Gas-Drive Wheeled Compressors

Rolair Gas-Drive Wheeled Compressors

Rolair Gas-Drive Wheeled Compressors are the industry standard for high-production framing, roofing, and industrial maintenance. By combining the legendary reliability of Honda GX engines with Rolair’s heavy-duty cast-iron pumps, these units provide the massive airflow required for multiple tools on remote jobsites where electricity is unavailable.

The 4090 Series: The Jobsite Standard

The 4090 series is the classic “9-Gallon” portable. These units are perfectly balanced for one-person transport while providing enough air for a small framing crew.

• 4090HK17-0001: Powered by the Honda GX160 engine and the efficient K17 pump. Ideal for general contracting and trim work.
• 4090HMK103-0001: Features the higher-output MK103 pump, delivering faster recovery times for more aggressive pneumatic tool use.
• Optional 20 gallon tank

The 6590 Series: High-Volume Production

Moving up to the 6590 series introduces the Honda GX200 engine, providing more torque and higher CFM for crews running 3–4 nail guns simultaneously.

• 6590HK18-0001: Utilizes the heavy-duty K18 pump for industrial-grade airflow.
• 6590HMK113-0001: Equipped with the high-displacement MK113 pump, designed for maximum recovery speed in high-production environments.
• 6590HK18-0072: Option for 20 gallon tank

Large Capacity & Industrial Solutions

These models feature larger tanks or higher-horsepower engines for extreme air demands and industrial maintenance.

• 1040HK18-0001: Features a 9-gallon tank configuration paired with the K18 pump and GX270 engine, offering a larger air reserve to reduce engine cycling.
• 7722HK28 Series: Features the massive K28 pump and a Honda GX270 engine. Mounted on a 20-gallon horizontal tank, this is a true “station on wheels” for heavy commercial work. (Available with or without the -0072 lubricator package).
• 8422HK30-0001: A powerhouse utilizing the Honda GX270 and the K30 pump on a 20-gallon tank. This unit is built for heavy-duty industrial tasks and large-scale roofing projects.
• 8230HK30-0001: The flagship of the portable lineup. It combines the Honda GX270 engine with the K30 pump and a 20-gallon tank. This is essentially a mobile shop plant capable of running the most demanding pneumatic tools.

Core Professional Features

• Honda GX Engines: Every model features a Honda engine with an overhead valve design for easy starting, fuel efficiency, and a long service life.
• Cast-Iron Pumps: Splash-lubricated pumps with cast-iron cylinders ensure the unit runs cool and remains rebuildable for decades of use.
• Automatic Idle Control: Equipped with a pneumatic throttle cable that idles the engine down when the tank reaches its set pressure, saving fuel and reducing jobsite noise.
• Schmidt Pilot Valve: High-quality unloader valves ensure a consistent and reliable pressure range.
• Jobsite Mobility: Built with heavy-gauge steel frames and oversized pneumatic tires to navigate mud, stairs, and debris.
