Reciprocating Piston Compressors – Belt Drive, Single & Two Stage
We supply a complete range of reciprocating piston compressors, offering belt drive models in both single and two-stage variants. Built to exacting standards, our lubricated piston compressors are designed for long life, dependable performance, and maximum value across a wide range of industrial applications.
With quality at the forefront, we partner with MAC3 to deliver cast iron, slow-running compressors engineered to provide outstanding durability and efficiency for businesses across the UK.
Mac3 Lubricated Piston Compressors – Built for Industrial Reliability
Our range of MAC3 lubricated piston compressors is engineered specifically for industrial environments where robust and reliable compressed air solutions are required. Manufactured using cast iron construction and running at a deliberately reduced speed of just 700 RPM, these compressors operate at half the speed of many standard piston compressors, significantly reducing wear and extending service life.
By running slower and being built with higher-grade materials, MAC3 piston compressors offer unrivalled quality, ensuring dependable performance even under continuous or heavy-duty use. They are ideal for workshops, manufacturing plants, agricultural operations, and any setting where consistent, long-term air supply is critical.
We offer a broad range of flow rates, pressure options, and motor sizes, including models designed for both 240V and 415V systems, with Star/Delta starter options available for larger installations.
Technical Specifications
Our reciprocating piston compressors are available in a wide selection of specifications to meet different operational demands:
- Pressures available: from 8 to 15 Bar
- Motor sizes: from 1.1kW up to 7.5kW
- Flow rates: from 205L/min to 1657L/min
With this flexibility, we can match a compressor precisely to your application, ensuring optimum performance and cost-efficiency.
Model Variants
We offer two core variants to meet a range of industrial requirements:
- Belt Drive – Single Stage
- Belt Drive – Two Stage
Single-stage compressors are ideal for applications requiring moderate pressure, while two-stage compressors offer higher pressures for more demanding tasks. Our team can help you identify the best model for your specific usage needs.

Questions and Answers
Selecting the right piston compressor is crucial to ensuring the efficiency and reliability of your compressed air system. Every application is different, which is why it is important to carefully evaluate the piston displacement (PD) against the free air delivered (FAD).
The FAD figure is the true indicator of what the end user requires at the application point. Therefore, FAD should always be the figure that determines the size of the compressor selected.
