20 GALLON AIR COMPRESSOR BUILT FOR CONSISTENT OUTPUT

When your job demands more than a basic portable compressor, the Mi-T-M AM2-SH09-20ME steps in with electric start, a larger tank, and industrial-grade reliability. This 20 gallon air compressor gives you the output, runtime, and ease of use you need in the field or mounted in your rig.

It’s powered by a 270cc Honda GX270 OHV engine with electric start, pushing 17.2 CFM at 175 PSI — enough to power dual tool operation without lag. Whether you're on a job site or in a mobile service setup, this unit gives you air you can count on every time you hit the start switch.

The two-stage cast iron pump compresses air in two steps, reducing heat, increasing pressure, and maximizing duty cycles. With splash lubrication and a belt drive system, the pump is designed to stay cool and last longer — even under daily use.

The 20 gallon air compressor tank delivers longer tool runs and fewer pressure dips, which means less cycling and more productivity. Built on a wheelbarrow-style frame with flat-free 10” tires, this machine is ready to roll anywhere, and the 3/16” steel base plate reduces vibration while you work.

With pneumatic idle control, the engine lowers RPM when tools disengage, reducing fuel consumption and noise. It's a smart upgrade that pays for itself in long shifts and less wear on your equipment.

If you’re in the market for a high-output, air compressor 20 gallon with pro-grade features and startup convenience, this model should be at the top of your list.
