Used Compressors

Buying a used air compressor is one of the most cost-effective ways to add reliable compressed air to a workshop, garage or production line without paying for new. Every second-hand compressor we sell in the UK is fully inspected, tested and serviced by our engineers before it leaves us, so you get dependable performance at a fraction of the new price.

Why buy a used air compressor?

A quality used compressor can cost significantly less than an equivalent new machine while delivering the same day-to-day performance. Because every unit is stripped, checked and serviced before sale, you avoid the early-life teething issues of a bargain auction find, and you get a machine that is ready to work. It is also the greener choice, keeping well-built industrial equipment in service rather than scrapped.

Types of used compressor we stock

Our used range covers rotary screw compressors for continuous, high-demand use, piston compressors for intermittent workshop air, and portable units for site work. We carry trusted brands across a broad spread of power ratings and air deliveries, so there is usually an option to suit most budgets and duties.

How to choose the right used compressor

The key figures are air delivery (CFM or l/min), working pressure (bar), motor size (kW) and electrical supply (single or three phase). Match these to your tools and how continuously you run air, leaving a little headroom so the machine is not working flat out. If you are unsure, our team is happy to advise on flow, pressure and duty cycle so you buy the right compressor first time. All used machines come backed by warranty and UK delivery.
