SEALEY SAC05030 50 Litre V Twin Direct Drive Air Compressor

The SAC05030 is a capable, mid range air compressor designed for workshops that need dependable airflow for regular tool use without moving up to large, fixed compressors. It is well suited to mechanics, vehicle technicians, engineers, fabricators and maintenance teams who rely on air tools throughout the day for servicing, repairs and general workshop work.

With a 50 litre receiver tank, this compressor offers a good balance between air storage and space efficiency. It provides enough reserve air to handle common workshop tasks such as running impact wrenches, ratchets, air drills, tyre inflators, blow guns and light spraying equipment, while still being compact enough to move around the workshop when needed.

The V twin pump design uses aluminium cylinders with cast iron liners, helping reduce overall weight while improving resistance to wear under repeated use. This setup delivers smoother output and longer service life compared to single cylinder units. The pump is directly coupled to a heavy duty induction motor, giving reliable, consistent performance with lower maintenance requirements and quieter operation than many belt driven alternatives.

In terms of performance, the compressor delivers an air displacement of 12.6 cfm with a maximum free air delivery of 8.75 cfm, making it suitable for most general purpose air tools. The maximum pressure of 130 psi provides flexibility across a wide range of applications and tool requirements.

Operation is straightforward and user friendly. A fully automatic pressure cut out switch controls start and stop operation, so the compressor manages itself once powered on. An integrated air regulator allows accurate adjustment of outlet pressure, while clear pressure gauges display both tank pressure and working pressure, making it easy to set up correctly for each task.

For workshop practicality, the unit is supplied with a handle and wheels, allowing it to be moved easily between work areas without lifting. It is fitted with a standard 3 pin plug, meaning it runs from a normal UK mains supply and can be used straight out of the box without special electrical installation.
