About the Gast piston compressor
Gast's piston compressors and vacuum pumps are oil-free units with a robust construction. The piston moves back and forth in a cylinder, creating pressure or vacuum. The series delivers pressure up to 125 psig (8.6 bar), vacuum up to 28.5 inHg (48 mbar) and air flows up to 11 cfm (18.7 m³/h). The units are corrosion-resistant and built for long, maintenance-free operation.
The range in Gast's product overview for 2026 comprises the L and H series 1L–8L and 1H–8H, the vacuum models 1VAF, 4VSF, 4VCF and 5VDF, and PCA. The models are supplied motor-mounted or belt-driven (separate drive), and several motor configurations are available. Tank-mounted piston compressors are supplied in simplex design with tank sizes from 2 to 30 gallons (7.6–113.6 litres).
Typical applications are cable pressurisation, tyre inflators, air suspension, beverage dispensers, door closers, pneumatic temperature control, power spraying, spray painting and medical and dental clinics. A complete range of accessories is available.
