Key Features

Makita DMP180 Cordless Inflator

The Makita Cordless Inflator delivers up to 120 psi. It also features an auto-stop function. You just set the desired pressure on the backlit display, and when the DMP180 reaches the desired pressure, it shuts itself off to prevent overfilling.

It features a 25.5-inch hose for better reach and an LED work light so you can see what you’re doing in dim or nighttime conditions.

The compact Makita cordless inflator measures a very portable 10 x 3 x 7 inches. It stores away neatly and is small enough to throw in your trunk or in your toolbag.  It includes a sports ball needle, Presta valve adapter, and tapered adapter—all of which stores away inside the handle.
