Q:What pressure will it fill to? Not on the box, but at the tire. Toe trailers and tow vehicle needs 60-80, trailer 80lbs.

Answer This Question

A:  You can adjust the pressure on the front of the inflator to what you need it to be with the up & down buttons. On the Home Depot website it says it can inflate tires up to 120 psi. One of the features I love is that you can set it to the desired pressure and go do something else while it inflates the tire - it shuts off automatically when the tire is filled to the correct pressure.

    A:  This was a waste of money. Worked four times and then motor blew. Two times put air in wheelbarrow tire and the second time putting 38 lbs pressure in car tires the inflator motor was dead.

      A:  Well, this is very good for bicycle tires. It will fill them up to any pressure they require quickly. Vehicle tires is another question. I got it and used it on my small rv. It took forever to fill a 3/4 filled tire. It would over heat and shut down. I had four tires that I needed to bring up to pressure at 60lbs, I believe an it took me several days to do that. This was using 120 volts. I'm currently looking at the smaller Craftsman air compressors to replace it.

        A:  I use the inflator for accuracy. I too have a trailer that the tires need to be 105 lbs. It will take a long time to get it there if your tires are at say 80-90 lbs. It will get hot and shut off. But it will accurately get it to 105, if that is the pressure you want.

          A:  I do not know how high it goes. We use it to inflate car tires.

          by|May 5, 2023

            A:  it will but its junk, returned 2 now. get a 2v only or a 120 v only.

              A:  I have had no problem with my Honda CRV-X

              by|May 5, 2023

                A:  This will reach only 1 tire at a time.

                by|May 5, 2023

                  A:  I'm not exactly sure how long the power cord is, it is probably in the specs but it is enough to easily reach all of the tires.

                  by|May 5, 2023

                  A:  About 14 inches, you will need an extension cord

                    A:  4 ft

                    by|May 5, 2023

                      A:  About 14-16 inches. You will need an extension cord.

                        A:  Usually a minute or two depending on how low the tire is. Have used this multiple times already since purchasing- works great! Bought after a friend recommended it

                        by|May 5, 2023

                          A:  Different size tires are obviously going to take different amounts of time. This filled my 32 inch off road tires from 15psi to 32psi in about 4 to 5 minutes per tire.

                          by|May 5, 2023

                            A:  This air pump works great! A car tire that's completely flat will take approximately 8 to 10 minutes to inflate to the required PSI's.

                            by|May 5, 2023

                              A:  Great question, but it does depend on the tire and the pressure you want to get in. Just for example: If you set the outgoing pressure to 30 lbs. you can fill up a Lexus RX350 tore in about five minutes.

                              A:  I'm sorry that I can't help you with the answer you asked for, but this was purchased for my stepdaughter who needed to use it last week to pump up a flat tire at home. It only took about 3 minutes to pump the tire up so she was very happy with it

                                A:  None listed. You may want to call 1-888- 43-HUSKY (Customer Service Team). Maybe they can help you.

                                by|May 5, 2023

                                  A:  I do not think this actually has a cfm rating. Cfm is generally used for running equioment such as air tools that this is not designed to do. That is why it is called an inflator and not a compressor. This is designed to inflate things to a maximum pressure of 120 psi such as tires, air mattresses, sports balls and other inflatables.

                                  Q:How fast/easy will this inflate a 35x12.5 tire?

                                  A:  This unit doesn't push a large volume of air. The bigger the tire the longer it takes. A 35x12.5 tire should be in the 32-35 PSI range (I assume). If you are pumping it up from 28 say, it may take a minute or two.

                                  by|May 5, 2023

                                  A:  I have had no problem filling my car's tires. Until you use the inflator, I can not tell you how long it will take to fill the tire to it's proper pressure.

                                  by|May 5, 2023

                                    A:  It will easily inflate a 35 inch tire but how fast is going to depend on what psi you start and finish at. I will take for granted you are off roading so I would guess 4-5 minutes per tire from 12 psi to 32 plus compressor cool down between tires. If you want faster you are going to have to spend more money on a more powerful compressor with a longer duty cycle. Personally this compressor did not suit my wants and needs and I went with a Viair compressor that has battery clamps for power rather than the cigarette lighter.

                                    A:  I have always just gone with a "feel" when inflating sports equipment. Inflate, see how it bounces and add or reduce air as needed. I wouldn't go with the gauge with a ball regardless.

                                    A:  I use the bounce test.
