About Twin Cylinder Air Compressors
A V-twin pump runs cooler than a comparable single-cylinder thanks to better airflow over both heads, and produces less pulsation in the output air — handy for spraying.
Most twin-cylinder UK compressors are belt-drive with 3HP–5.5HP motors, delivering 12–25 CFM. Two-stage twin-cylinder models hit 12–15 bar for high-pressure applications.
