30 GALLON AIR COMPRESSOR THAT STARTS EASY AND WORKS HARD

When you need big power, big runtime, and zero excuses, the Mi-T-M AM2-SH09-30ME steps up. This 30 gallon air compressor includes a Honda GX270 OHV engine with electric start, giving you quick ignition and serious pressure for the tools that keep your business moving.

With 17.2 CFM at 175 PSI, this machine delivers the air output needed to run grinders, sprayers, framing nailers, and other air-hungry tools. It’s built around a two-stage cast iron pump that compresses air in two phases — improving efficiency, cooling, and pump longevity.

The real advantage? The 30 gallon vertical tank. It stores more air, reduces cycling, and gives you extended tool runtime without pressure drops. That translates to less downtime and smoother operation under load.

Built with mobility and strength in mind, the compressor rides on a steel wheelbarrow-style frame with flat-free tires, and features a 3/16” base plate to reduce vibration. Despite its tank size, this unit is made to move — whether you're working the shop, field, or fleet.

Pneumatic idle control automatically lowers RPM when tools disengage, saving fuel and extending the life of the engine. With manual drains, dual gauges, a regulator, and a pilot valve unloader, you’re in full control.

If you're searching for a dependable, high-output air compressor 30 gallon that’s easy to start and tough to beat, this is the one.
