Piston compressor hire in Nottingham

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

In Nottingham, from Colwick and Netherfield to Bulwell and Beeston, many workshops need compressed air for a limited time: a refurbishment, a busy season, an extra station for a contract, a compressor waiting for repair. A hired piston compressor covers the need without a purchase.

Who is it for?

Piston compressor hire in Nottingham is aimed at:

  • garages and tyre centres along the ring road and the A610;
  • metalworking shops and printers in Basford, Bulwell and Daybrook;
  • joinery workshops and shopfitters across the city;
  • maintenance teams on the Colwick and Netherfield estates;
  • businesses that want to test a model before buying it.

See also our page on compressors for tyre centres.

Piston or screw: which to hire?

Choose a piston compressor if the air is used at intervals: hand tools, tyre inflation, blowing off, a few hours a day. If the compressor has to run continuously, a screw compressor is the better fit: see our screw compressor hire in Nottingham. Our guide screw or piston compressor explains the difference.

The E series for hire

We hire out the piston compressors of the E series, from 4 to 11 kW, on 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.

We help you choose according to your tools and the pressure they need.

Frequently asked questions — Nottingham

Which piston compressor should I hire for a Nottingham workshop?

For hand tools and blow guns, the E 40 (4 kW, 100 L) suits a small workshop and the E 75 (7.5 kW, 180 L, 8 or 12.5 bar) a garage. For several workstations at the same time, choose the E 110 (11 kW, 320 L, 8 bar).

When is a screw compressor better than a piston in Nottingham?

A piston compressor suits intermittent use, a few hours a day. If your compressor must run continuously, over a full day or several shifts, a screw compressor is the better choice. We also hire screw compressors in Nottingham, from 5.5 to 132 kW.
