Chicago Pneumatic RCP-C Iron Two-Stage Gas-Engine Air Compressor

Chicago Pneumatic RCP-C Iron Two-Stage Gas-Engine Reciprocating Air Compressor

No power, no problem. The RCP-C Iron gas-engine model brings two-stage, cast-iron durability to job sites, farm operations, and service trucks that can’t count on grid power. A commercial-grade engine drives a low-RPM pump for dependable CFM at 175 PSI, so you can run impacts, grinders, nailers, and service tools where the work actually is. Rugged mounting, belt guarding, and smart cooling keep it honest in heat, dust, and vibration.

It’s built for straight utility: quick starts, predictable throttle response, and simple maintenance checkpoints. Pair it with a properly sized receiver, mount it securely, and route exhaust safely—then put it to work on remote repairs, construction punch lists, and field maintenance where an electric unit just won’t go.

Highlights & Specs (typical configurations):

• Engine drive: Commercial gas-engine power—mobile, off-grid air
• Pump: Cast-iron, two-stage compression for high-pressure delivery
• Pressure: Up to 175 PSI for heavy-duty air tools and inflation tasks
• Mobility: Skid or truck-mount options; field-service friendly layout
• Cooling: Finned components and airflow through guarded belt system
