Piston compressor hire in Belfast

Piston compressor hire in Belfast and Northern Ireland: E series from 4 to 11 kW, installed by our UK technicians and dealers, on quote, WhatsApp 24/7.

In Belfast, from the Harbour Estate to Duncrue and Mallusk, many firms need compressed air for a set period: a marine repair, a harvest season on a farm, an extra station for an order, a compressor out of action. A hired piston compressor provides the air without buying a machine.

Who is it for?

Piston compressor hire in Belfast is aimed at:

  • marine and fabrication workshops on Queen's Island and in Sydenham;
  • garages and vehicle workshops around Kennedy Way and Boucher Road;
  • truck workshops and hauliers in Duncrue and Mallusk;
  • farms and agricultural contractors across Northern Ireland;
  • businesses that want to try a model before buying.

Piston or screw: which to hire?

Hire a piston compressor when the demand is intermittent: hand tools, tyres, blow guns, a few hours a day. When the machine must run without a break, a screw compressor is better suited: see our offer of screw compressor hire in Belfast. For more detail, read our guide screw or piston compressor.

The E series for hire

The piston compressors we hire come from the E series: 4 to 11 kW, with receivers from 100 to 320 L.

  • E 40: 4 kW on a 100 L receiver, ready to plug in, for the workshop and the garage.
  • E 75: 7.5 kW, 180 L receiver on wheels, 8 or 12.5 bar, 0.9 m³/min.
  • E 75 HP: two-stage, 7.5 kW, 12.5 bar, 300 L receiver, 1.05 m³/min, for truck tyre inflation and demanding tools.
  • E 110: 11 kW, 320 L receiver, 8 bar, 1.6 m³/min, for several workstations at once.
