Milwaukee Inflator: A New Addition to the Milwaukee M18 Line

Milwaukee only offered a portable tire inflator for years as part of its M12 series. They had larger, bulky compressors to manage bigger fills, but hauling out hoses and the compressor can be a pain. Milwaukee’s new addition to their M18 series is about to change that. The Milwaukee M18 Inflator (2848-20) brings all the best features of the M12 Compact Inflator and cranks up the speed.

The M18 Inflator is an excellent solution for roadside service, fleet maintenance, automotive, and tire repair. It also works fantastic for tradespeople, such as plumbers, who can use it for system pressure testing and vehicle maintenance.

Many tire inflators on the market right now sacrifice speed to achieve accuracy. The M18 Inflator fills over two times faster than cordless competitors and can top off 33-inch light-duty truck tires in under one minute. Milwaukee remembered the inflator’s accuracy as it features TRUEFILL Technology.

The technology has two features: auto pressure check and automatic shut-off. The auto pressure check activates to achieve the PSI target, allowing fast, accurate inflations. The shut-off feature prevents overinflation as you can set the desired PSI, and the inflator will shut down automatically.



The new portable tire inflator features a 150 max PSI capacity and can top off up to thirty tires on an M18 5.0 battery. The M18 inflator is optimized for passengers, light trucks, and other medium-duty trucks. The 2848-20 also features an ergonomic handle, anti-vibration rubber feet for added stability, four memory presets for expected inflation levels, an onboard hose and nozzle storage, and a 36-inch inflation hose that makes it easy to reach a variety of valve stems.
