Viair Accessory Air Compressor
Viair Accessory Air Compressors: Reliable Air Power for Any Application
When it comes to mobile air power, few names carry the credibility of Viair. Founded in 1998, Viair is widely recognized as the leading air compressor manufacturer in aftermarket air suspension, tire inflators, and onboard air systems for use across various applications in the automotive industry. Their accessory air compressors represent the heart of that legacy — compact, purpose-built units engineered to deliver consistent air pressure wherever and whenever you need it.
DC-Powered Precision in a Portable Package
Viair Corp. is a manufacturer of DC, fractional horsepower, oil-less air compressors and air accessories. This oil-less design is a key differentiator: it eliminates the mess and maintenance demands of oil-lubricated units, making Viair compressors especially well-suited for mobile, vehicle-mounted installations. Viair offers the most complete line of 12-volt and 24-volt DC air compressors and air accessories for both the on- and off-road markets available anywhere.
The company manufactures compressors including automatic deployment air systems, onboard air systems, and plug-and-play systems. This range means whether you're outfitting a daily-driver SUV for emergency tire inflation or building a full onboard air system for a dedicated off-road rig, there is a Viair unit engineered for that exact purpose.
Built for Real-World Conditions
All compressors from the company are equipped with a thermal overload protector which shuts down the motor in case of overheating. This safeguard is critical for accessory compressors that may run continuously during extended inflation tasks or demanding trail use. C-model compressors, for instance, are specially designed to fill air tanks and are built with a stainless steel braided leader hose and check valve, which prevents them from restarting under pressure.
Viair compressors and components are used in the OEM segment, 4x4 and sport air suspension, and have become the industry standard for both 12-volt and 24-volt automotive applications worldwide. That OEM-level trust translates directly to the accessory compressor lineup — these are units vetted not just by enthusiasts, but by vehicle manufacturers themselves.
A System-Ready Ecosystem
What sets Viair apart in the accessory air compressor space is how well their compressors integrate into a broader pneumatic ecosystem. To make the installation of any pneumatic system as simple as possible, the brand offers a full line of appropriate accessories — whether it is a Viair compressor mount or pressure regulator, it's built to the highest quality standards. From pressure switches and relays to steel-braided hoses and manifold kits, premium components are designed to integrate easily and help optimize your portable or onboard air system.
Today, the company's quality-built products are widely used in not only automotive but also industrial, agricultural, and medical industries — a testament to the engineering standards baked into every unit. Whether you're airing up oversized tires on the trail, running air lockers, or powering pneumatic tools from your truck bed, a Viair accessory air compressor is a cornerstone investment in your vehicle's capability.
