It inflates my truck car motorcycle tires the tip screws onto the valve stem and you turn it on works like a champ has its own very accurate analog gage and inflates my trucks 20 inch tires to 70 lbs

Yes I use this unit to inflate my RV tires, 65PSI in rear and &%PSI front. It takes awhile becasue the tank is small and the unit is load but it works.I added additional inflator accessories to my unit.

Hi Angie, this unit comes with the standard Schrader valve attached (blue hose). It will be perfect for pumping car tires. Good luck.

This compressor was made strictly for airing up tires. It has battery clamps to car battery, no converter to run off an outlet. The valve stem tool does not come off, not interchangeable with other tools. It will inflate a car tire in under 2 minutes, so for the intended purpose it works great. I've not tried it on smaller things so don't know the ratings of cfm. I suppose a person could custom modify it if one knew how to attach fittings.

Although the valve of the pump would screw onto a standard tire "stem valve" the relatively small amount of air that the pump itself displaces would not be an efficient way of putting air into your tire. It is absolutely great for the intended purpose of putting air into air shocks, but would be frustrating to use on tires.

it will attache to a bike tire if the tire in question is a Shrater valve. Most department store bikes are shrater valve "same as car". If it is a high end bike it is likely to have a Presta valve... you can buy a presta to shrater adapter for 2 bucks at any bike shop.

Yes you can air up tires. I've used it to air up my truck tires and car. I have also used it to air up my kids toys, but be careful. It can fill the toys up very fast.

No I don't think so. I have a car air compressor/tire inflater and it wouldn't work with it.

Joe C: Just a hand tire pump that is used to inflate bicycle tires, basketballs, soccer balls, etc. You'll need a "needle" of the type used for inflating basketballs etc. I think you and yours will have an enormous amount of fun with this. Good luck.

No, you hook this up to an air hose connected to an air compressor. It needs an air source to inflate tires.

All you will need is an air chuck. They sell them separately but I recommend buying the combination kit which also includes the quick connect adapters, a blow gun and sometimes a pressure gauge to check the tire pressure. I think this compressor is an outstanding deal. I use mine as a portable air tank. I air it up in my garage. When it reaches pressure and shuts off I disconnect the electrical plug and carry it out to the car and truck in the driveway. You not only save dragging out and winding up the extension but connecting it directly to the wall plug avoids the possibility of overloading the extension cord if it is not a heavy enough gauge.

Either, however it was so out of shape when purchased I could not seat it on the wheel to inflate it. So, I took out the valve stem, installed a tube and used the tube to push the tire onto the wheel. Good luck!

I keep one of these in each of my cars. I use it to top off the air in the tires, as well as for emergencies. It takes about ten minutes to completely inflate a tire on my wife's economy car and way longer on my SUV. It gets very hot when running for prolonged periods of time, so I only do so occasionally. If you need to do something like that on a regular basis, get a real compressor and not something that runs off the cigarette lighter in your car.

That has not been a problem with me. When I unscrew the inflation hose from the tire valve stem a small amount of air comes out, but on a car tire it makes no difference in pressure. Maybe there is something wrong with your pump that you should speak to the manufacturer about.

You probably can. I forget if it came with attachments for stuff like that. Your air mattress may have the attachment it needs. I changed my coupler out and ran a different hose with a regular fitting (like for air tools). Much more convenient than what it came with. If you are using this camping just a word of caution, it is NOT quiet. I bought a cheap air pump just for blowing up my air mattress at the local sporting goods store. Super quiet, cheap, and no need for attachments. This compressor will piss off your camp neighbors if they are close to you. Other than that it's a great compressor for everything else. I have two of them.

This is a sufficient compressor to inflate auto tires, but you will need to have a tire inflator for it.

NO , I have had mine for over a year and it has never needed air in the tires. It would be a very simple thing to do if it did need air. It is a great jogger ,We love ours.

The unit comes with a pre-installed tire stem. You just need a standard tire pump. Though I'd make sure you get one with some muscle. It takes a lot out of the pump...

It's just a tire inflator. Plugs onto an air hose. Hand valve, gauge, and valve stem chuck that locks onto the tire valve stem. The locking chuck was poorly designed and leaked so I had to send it back.
