How well does it work on inflating car tires?

It does a good job. If the tire is really low, the unit will probably need to be connected to a power source because the tank does not hold that much air

It does well inflating tires. If you need to do alot, it may take a bit to build up pressure again

I have only used it for filling bicycle tires. It preformed better than I expected and with one of the other adapters i'm sure it will do a great job for you. I really love it!

Not sure about CFM. I have inflated a car tire with relatively low PSI (26 or so) up to 32 PSI in less than 60 seconds... perhaps less than 40 seconds.

It works fine for anything with a standard tire valve, it comes with adapters to air up footballs, air mattresses...ETC. I have a big air compressor at home, but use this for the smaller jobs, it works great for car and motorcycles tires. a little slow but that is good. the gauge on the pump is accurate as well. This is a handy item

I have used it for a low car tire & it worked. Per the manual: the unit needs to be turned off every 10 minutes during inflation to avoid overheating & let it cool for 15 minutes. It says it will inflate small sports equip. such as basketballs & gives car tire pressures of PSIs of 26, 24, 30 28. You will however need electric to recharge the battery after you inflate the mattress. I keep mine plugge in an outlet 24x7 for emergencies. You can call Duracell at 800-842-2127.

For changing car tires or the like this compressor should handle it just fine. You can easily get 120 lbs of pressure out of it, but don't expect 150. You may have to wait for the pressure to build up again before you can go from bolt to bolt, but this is a home or light carpenter use compressor.

It is made to work with a normal shop compressor. I have both a Campbell Hausfield floor model and a portable compressor that can be used with power tools. It would work on either of these. However, it probably won't work on a portable tire inflator designed for tire inflation using a cigarette lighter for power. I know it won't work on mine.

It filled up the air shocks on my pickup to 150psi no problem. Just remember to shut it off every 10 minutes of use or the motor will overheat. Great little inflater. It uses a simple 540 size motor you can replace if needed too.

No, it is an attachment to the air compressor. It works well inflating automobile tires. One thing that is annoying is that the hose going to the tire does not rotate and gets twisted up in certain positions.

I tried to inflate it with an air compressor i usually use for tires & it worked a little but the hose was not the same size as the inflation valve so I could not get a good seal going on & ended up finishing blowing the thing up the old fashioned way (with my own hot air) while making a mental note to purchase an air pump made for air mattresses. I. Have 2 of these air mattresses & they have held up very well through several camping trips & sleepovers with kids jumping on them.

Yes. This is the only tire pump I have for all my vehicles, and it works fine for such purposes. As a kid growing up, we would use bicycle pumps such as these to pump up tires when we had flats and we were on the road, and our spare needed air. A bicycle pump will pump up any tire, regardless of size, as long as the valve stems on the tires are the same as the valve stems of the bicycle pump. Since bicycle tires, car tires, and even semi-truck tires all have the same valve stems, you may use a bicycle pump to pump up any of them. Just make sure the intended PSI of the tire you are pumping up is not greater than the PSI rating of the pump you are using. In this case, the bicycle pump is rated at 70 PSI, more than enough for the average car tire (somewhere around 35ish PSI is average for a car, although it varies from tire to tire). Note when pumping up a car tire, pump it up to the PSI recommended on the specifications sticker located on the driver's side door panel, NOT the max psi listed on the tire. Inflating a tire to its maximum rating will cause it to wear out super fast, and will not handle ideally.

I have 700x25c tires and can get a single tire to 100 psi give or take a few lbs. It definitely inflates the tire well enough to safely finish your ride. You can only really inflate one tire per cartridge.

It should work fine for that. And while you could set the regulator down to the pressure you want in your tire, you would better off leaving the regulator at full pressure and using a manual triggered tire inflater (with pressure gauge) at the end of your air hose. Tire inflaters like this often have built-in air bleeder buttons too, allowing you to instantly release excess pressure if you pump in too much.

I didn't try it with a car tire, but I am afraid it's not so strong. Thanks.

This doesn't work for me at all. I own a car dealership and bought it to maintain tire pressures on vehicles parked on the car lot. It takes 20-30 minutes to air up 1 tire I don't recommend purchasing this one.

I've had one for about four years. It's very loud but has worked fine. The pressure gauge is off by five PSIs but once you inflate the tires and check it with a better gauge, you'll know when to stop inflating by adjusting for the difference. I have to replace it now as the air hose is cracked. I would not recommend cramming the hose into the storage space.

Sure if you attach to your car battery with installed alligator clips. Very fast for inflating and deflating and multiple attachment points for output, so depending on your particular air mattress valve, you should be good.
