Benefits
Free Up To 25 Cubic Feet On Your Truck Body
UNDERHOOD70 air compressors free up to 25 cubic feet on the truck deck because the air compressor mounts in the engine compartment. In fact, no components get installed on the truck deck, ensuring a clean and professional-looking truck and space for other equipment, tools, or materials.
Reduce Truck GVW By Up To 260 lb
UNDERHOOD70 air compressors reduce truck GVW by as much as 260 lb. Choosing a lightweight air compressor means you’ll be able to add more tools and equipment to your truck, carry more materials, or take advantage of better fuel economy.
Up To 70 CFM*, 100% Of The Time
UNDERHOOD70 air compressors use patented rotary screw technology designed to run at 100% duty cycle without stopping, so operators don’t have to wait for their air compressor to fill up an air receiver tank. This maximizes tool performance and eliminates downtime.
Avoid Frustrating Breakdowns & Maintenance Issues
UNDERHOOD70 air compressors are powered by the truck’s engine. Because they don’t have their own engine that needs constant maintenance, less time and money is spent fixing engine issues, and more time is spent on jobs making money.
Work In Any Climate
UNDERHOOD70 air compressors are proven to work in any extreme climate, making them the air compressor of choice in arctic and desert environments. The compressor is protected in the truck’s engine compartment, ensuring it starts in any climate every time.
