Heavy Duty Air Compressor for ARB Air Lockers


There are truly only a few accessories that are able to give off road warriors as many advantages as having on board air that is readily available.  In fact, on board air is considered to be a must have item for many off road warriors all around the world.  This goes for both off and on road travel.  When you have one of the heavy duty air compressors for ARB air lockers that are made by ARB 4 x 4 Accessories, you will have the ability to have the air you need anytime you are near a power source that is 12 or 24 Volts.

We all know that your tires will give you the best performance when they are at the proper PSI for a given terrain.  When you are on the highway, this means that they need a high pressure.  Being on the trails or crawling over rocks calls for lower air pressure levels so that you get the traction that you need.  Having a source of compressed air in your rig that is readily available gives you the freedom that comes with being able to adjust the rate of air pressure in your tires regardless of where you are.

Another benefit of having on board air is that you will have the ability to add air to your tires that may have been repaired.  When you are traversing harsh terrains, it is not an unusual thing to have your tires punctured multiple times in a single day.  In situations like this, having a source of on board compressed air is absolutely priceless.   Couple this air compressor with the many tire repair accessories that ARB makes and you will be able to travel the trails with peace of mind as well as with independence.
