The best 300 bar compressors, compared.
Top pick: TUXING TXES022 4500 psi adjustable HPA compressor Best value: TUXING TXES061 4500 psi PCP air compressor – Largest review file at about £152.99, used by reviewers for rifle fills, after the 110 V field and the missing shut-off are already deducted. Updated 20 October 2026.
A listing that says 4,500 psi is talking about roughly 310 bar. You tell a usable one from a catalogue accident by the stated maximum pressure, whether the voltage field matches the bullet, whether it really stops itself, and whether you will stay with it while it runs. It is not an 8 bar garage compressor and it is not a BS EN 12021 breathing-air set. The [300 bar compressor buying guide](/hub/compressors/300-bar-compressor/sub/300-bar-compressor-buying-guide) sets out voltage, cooling and stop behaviour before the product cards. A stated 300 bar is the seller’s ceiling, not a measured fill of your bottle. Portable oil-free, fan-cooled pumps of about 250–350 W and 5–10 kg are the bulk of this set. A 300 bar compressor, in the way UK shoppers use the phrase, is a small high-pressure pump for a air rifle, a paintball or bottle, and sometimes a small buddy bottle. 300 bar is 30, about 4,350 psi.

Question 1 of 2
What must the specification table say?
The TUXING TXES022 is the only water-cooled listing in the set, at £179 and 16 kg, with a water pump and hose in the box and a stated 1,800 W on 220 V. The special-feature line says automatic shut-off, and the table lists 50 L/min, 15 A and 85 dB. A bullet says the system can be lubricated with VG46 oil, which sets it apart from the oil-free fan units beside it. The star line is 4.5 from 6 ratings, and the saved listing holds only three UK review bodies: value, a noisy fan, and a short “excellent”. That is too small a sample to treat 4.5 as a stable ranking. A brand bullet says Creworks, so the name on the box may not match the TUXING title. It is the listing to shortlist when you want water cooling and a 220 V field, and you accept that six ratings cannot show how often it fails.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the water-cooled 220 V listing and you will not treat six ratings as a test.
Less suitable: You want a large UK review sample, or a lighter oil-free fan unit.
Specifications
Common questions
Does it include water cooling?
Yes. The included components list a water pump and a water hose.
What maximum pressure is stated?
300 bar.
How many ratings are on the listing?
4.5 out of 5 from 6 ratings.
The TUXING TXES062 on this ASIN costs £179.90, weighs 8.4 kg, and sits at 4.2 from 161 reviews, with a stated 350 W, 11 L/min and automatic shut-off up to 4,500 psi. The specification table says 110 V, while the bullets describe a built-in converter for 220 V and 12 V, so the two lines do not agree. Reviews mention airsoft and PCP fills, and some owners found it quieter than they expected. Others report a failure within days, a 0.5 m hose they wanted longer, and a unit that walked across the bench. A bullet says scuba bottles need an external activated-carbon filter that is not in the box, and that filter would still not make the air meet BS EN 12021. It shares the model string TXES062 with the £169 listing, but the price, the voltage field and the ASIN differ, so the two should not be treated as one warranty. It is the larger-sample TXES062 if you accept the 110 V field and you confirm the converter on the live page.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the TXES062 with 161 ratings and you will check whether the live page really accepts UK mains.
Less suitable: You need a specification table that already says 220 V or 230 V.
Specifications
Common questions
What model number is listed?
TXES062. A different ASIN, B0C6QBDS7W, uses the same model number.
Does the listing state auto shut-off?
Yes. Automatic shut-off is a special feature, and a bullet says it shuts off at a preset up to 4500 psi.
What does the listing say about scuba bottles?
A bullet says an external activated-carbon filter is required and is not included.
This SDKEHUI, at £220.15, is the listing whose specification table says 230 V AC, with the title also claiming 12 V DC and a built-in oil-water separator. It is listed at 10 kg and 350 W, with auto-stop and a cooling fan, and the warranty field says 1 year. Happy UK reviews describe PCP fills. One UK review says the pump reached 3,000 psi rather than the 4,500 psi in the title, which is about 207 bar rather than 300 bar. Another says a wire to the transformer was disconnected on arrival. Fifteen ratings at 4.1 is a thin base for a pump that costs more than the 220 V TUXING with 90 ratings. The 230 V field is the clearest mains line in the set, and it still needs the live page to confirm a BS 1363 plug. An 8 mm quick connector is listed in the box, which may still need a rifle probe.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the clearest 230 V field in the set and you can live with a small review sample.
Less suitable: You need several reviews that the pump reaches 300 bar, or a larger UK file at a lower price.
Specifications
Common questions
What mains voltage is in the table?
230 V AC. The title also says DC 12 V.
What maximum pressure is stated?
300 bar / 4500 psi in the title. One UK review says the unit only reached 3,000 psi.
Is a separator listed?
The title says a built-in oil-water separator.
The SDKEHUI at £132 is the cheapest pump in the set, listed at 5 kg, 300 W, 220 V and 300 bar, with the title saying oil-free and manual-stop. Many short UK reviews say it fills a rifle and is easier than a hand pump, and one review says it stops at the set point even though the title says manual-stop. Two UK reviews describe a gauge blown off the housing and exposed live connections on the mains side, and another says the case was too hot to touch within two minutes. The warranty field says 2 years, and an 8 mm connector plus a transformer are listed in the box. That split, ordinary fill notes beside serious hazard reviews, is why the low price is not treated as best value here. Thirty-five ratings at 4.0 do not cancel those reviews. Read them before you plug it in.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You have read the hazard reviews, you still want the cheapest 220 V listing, and you will stay with it while it runs.
Less suitable: You want a listing whose UK reviews do not describe a blown gauge or exposed conductors.
Specifications
Common questions
What mains voltage does the table state?
220 V.
Does the title say oil-free?
Yes. The title says oil-free and manual-stop.
What do UK reviews say about safety?
Two reviews describe a gauge blown off the housing and exposed live connections. Other reviews say it fills a rifle. The saved listing contains both.
The TUXING TXEDB062 is the dearest listing in the set at £259, a 15.3 kg dual-cylinder pump stated at 800 W, with a built-in fan and automatic shut-off. The specification table says 110 V, while a bullet says 220 V, and a UK reviewer wrote that it is little use on UK mains without a 240 V to 110 V transformer. The airflow field says 30 cubic metres per minute, which is not a credible figure for an 800 W pump and should be ignored. Only three UK reviews sit in the saved listing: the transformer warning, and one owner who was happy with a small rifle bottle. Most of the other pasted reviews are from the United States, Germany and Spain. The listing says an English manual is not guaranteed. At this price the thin UK evidence and the voltage clash are the reasons to leave it unless the live page shows a confirmed UK mains input.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You have already confirmed a UK-suitable voltage on the live page and you still want the dual-cylinder listing.
Less suitable: You are buying on the 800 W headline, or you do not have a step-down transformer.
Specifications
Common questions
What voltage is in the specification table?
110 V. A bullet also says 220 V. A UK review says a 240 V to 110 V transformer is needed.
Is it described as oil-free?
Yes. The bullets say it requires no oil.
What shut-off does the listing state?
Automatic shut-off when the preset pressure is reached.
The TUXING TXES061 at £152.99 is the most reviewed pump in this set, at 3.9 from 737 amazon.co.uk ratings, and reviewers describe it as a compact stand-in for a stirrup pump on rifle fills. It is listed at 7 kg, with a stated 300 bar ceiling, a 0.5 m hose, an oil-water separator and a repair kit. The specification table says 110 V, and the table quotes 300 W while a bullet says 250 W, so the live page needs a voltage check before it meets a UK 230 V socket. Several reviewers say there is no on/off switch and no auto-stop, even where the advertising suggested a preset. One UK review needed an adaptor and thread tape before the whip fitted an Air Arms S410, and another blew a burst cap while testing. A power supply that failed on arrival also appears in the file. The large sample is why it is the best-value listing here, and only if you will watch the gauge and you have confirmed the plug.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the biggest review file under £160, and you will confirm the voltage and stay with the gauge.
Less suitable: You need a specification table that already says 220 V or 230 V, or a shut-off you do not have to watch.
Specifications
Common questions
Does the listing say it is oil-free?
Yes. The bullets say the compressor is oil/water-free and that no oil or water is required.
What voltage does the specification table state?
The table states 110 V AC. The bullets also describe 12 V DC and a mains converter. Check the live page before you plug it into a UK socket.
Does the saved listing show an automatic shut-off?
The title does not state auto-stop. UK reviews say there is no on/off switch and that an auto-stop claim on the advert did not match the machine.
The TUXING TXES062 on this ASIN is the top pick inside this set because the specification table says 220 V, the price is £169, and 90 ratings give you a file you can read. Reviewers describe PCP fills in a few minutes and a cable spool used in place of a hand pump. The shut-off is not a digital preset: a UK reviewer says you set a needle on the analogue gauge and the screen shows temperature only. Complaints repeat across the file: units that died after months, a fan that smoked, poor seller support, an EU-style adaptor, and a worry about the moisture filter. Stated figures are 8.5 kg, 350 W, 11 L/min and 78 dB, with a current line of about 40 A if you use the 12 V clamps. It carries the same model string as the £179.90 listing, with a different voltage field, so parts and warranty should not be assumed to match. It leads the scores here only if you will stay in the room and you treat the failure reviews as part of the record, not as a reason to ignore them.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You want the 220 V TXES062 with a readable review file, and you will watch the needle while it runs.
Less suitable: You want a file with few failure stories, or after-sales support from a UK gun shop.
Specifications
Common questions
What power sources does the listing state?
220 V in the table, and bullets say 220 V AC or a 12 V car battery at about 40 A.
How is auto-stop described?
The title says auto-stop. A UK review says you set a needle on the gauge and the screen shows temperature only.
What air flow is stated?
11 litres per minute.
The TUDIVING TXES061 at £139 sits at 2.8 from 8 ratings, the weakest star line in the set. It is listed at 6.8 kg and 250 W, with a 110 V specification table, a car lead, a repair kit and an oil-water separator. One of the two UK reviews in the saved listing says the advertised preset shut-off is not on the machine, so you can overfill the rifle if you do not watch the gauge. The other review is a return that only comments on the packaging. The model number TXES061 is the same string as the TUXING with 737 ratings, and the brands are not one warranty. Current is stated at 42 A on the 12 V side, which is clamps rather than a cigarette-lighter socket. Eight ratings at 2.8, plus a disputed shut-off, are why it sits at the bottom of the scores.
Pros
Cons
Best for: You already know this is a thin, low-rated listing and you still want the TUDIVING price after reading those eight ratings.
Less suitable: You are choosing it because the TUXING TXES061 uses the same model number.
Specifications
Common questions
What brand and model are listed?
Brand TUDIVING, model TXES061. TUXING B07QRG14B4 uses the same model number.
What do UK reviews say about auto-stop?
One reviewer says the listing promises a preset shut-off and the compressor does not have that feature.
What voltage is in the table?
110 V AC. Bullets also mention 12 V DC and 110/220 V AC.
For this comparison we read eight 300 bar compressor listings on amazon.co.uk, shelf date 19 October 2026, and the review notes already in those display fields. Scores use star ratings, whether the voltage field matches the bullets, whether shut-off and cooling match the listing, and the shelf price in GBP. We did not run a lab test. A stated 300 bar is the seller’s ceiling, not a measured fill of your bottle.
Listing fit
35%A stated 300 bar, a mains field of 220 V or 230 V, a shut-off the listing and a review both describe, and cooling that matches the bullets. A 110 V specification table loses points even when a bullet mentions a converter. An airflow figure that cannot belong to the stated wattage is ignored.
Amazon evidence
30%Star rating on amazon.co.uk, then a deduction when the count is under a few dozen, or when most of the pasted review text is not from the United Kingdom. A 4.5 from six ratings is not scored as the best pump.
Review outcome
20%UK reviews that describe a finished rifle fill score higher than a file that repeats a missing shut-off, a smoked fan, a gauge that left the housing, or exposed live parts.
Value
15%Shelf price in GBP against a pump a UK review can use for a small rifle cylinder, after voltage and hazard notes are already counted. The lowest price does not win this block when the reviews include a blown gauge or exposed conductors.
Choose the stated pressure, the voltage field and the way the pump stops before you compare weight or noise. A 300 bar title is the seller’s ceiling. Your rifle or bottle has its own limit, and a 110 V specification table is a UK plug problem even when a bullet mentions a converter.
A 300 bar compressor, in the way UK shoppers use the phrase, is a small high-pressure pump for a PCP air rifle, a paintball or HPA bottle, and sometimes a small buddy bottle. 300 bar is 30 MPa, about 4,350 psi. A listing that says 4,500 psi is talking about roughly 310 bar. It is not an 8 bar garage compressor, not a 150 psi tyre inflator, and not a BS EN 12021 breathing-air set. Portable oil-free, fan-cooled pumps of about 250–350 W and 5–10 kg are the bulk of this Amazon set.
A garage compressor and a 150 psi tyre inflator are a different product. This set is the portable high-pressure pumps that claim 300 bar. The folder name does not make an 8 bar machine into one.
Four listings show 110 V in the specification table while bullets mention 220 V or a converter. A UK review of the £259 TUXING says a 240 V to 110 V transformer is required. Confirm the live page.
Many PCP rifles are filled to about 180–232 bar. BSA’s R12 manual states a maximum of 232 bar. A separator is not breathing air, and a cigarette-lighter socket is the wrong source for a 40 A claim.
UK mains are 230 V with a BS 1363 plug. Four kept listings show 110 V in the specification table while the bullets mention 220 V or a converter. A 110 V field loses points even when a bullet mentions a converter. A UK reviewer of the £259 TUXING said it needs a 240 V to 110 V transformer. Confirm the live page before you treat a converter sentence as a UK plug. If you want 12 V, bullets that state about 40–42 A are describing battery clamps.
Auto-stop is only real if the machine has the control. One TUDIVING review says the preset was advertising only. On the top-pick TXES062, a UK reviewer says you set a needle on the analogue gauge and the screen shows temperature only. The large-sample TXES061 is the best value on review volume, and reviews say there is no on/off switch and no auto-stop, so you stay with the gauge. Fan-cooled oil-free units need a rest.
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
You are replacing a stirrup pump and you will watch the gauge. The TUXING TXES062 at about £169 has 220 V in the specification table and 3.8 from 90 ratings. Shut-off is a needle on the gauge, and the failure reviews stay part of the record.
You shoot paintball or airsoft and the bottle is small, in the 0.5–1 L range sellers describe. The TUXING TXES062 at about £179.90 states automatic shut-off and has 4.2 from 161 ratings. The specification table says 110 V, so you confirm the live page before it meets a UK socket.
You will not buy a 110 V specification field. The SDKEHUI at about £220.15 is the listing whose table says 230 V AC, with auto-stop in the title. Only 15 ratings sit behind 4.1, and one UK review stopped near 3,000 psi. The 230 V line still needs a live-page check for a BS 1363 plug.
On these amazon.co.uk listings the TUXING TXES062 at about £169 is the top pick: the specification table says 220 V, 90 ratings give a file you can read, and the stated airflow is 11 L/min. Shut-off is a needle on the gauge, and reviews include dead units and a smoked fan, so you stay in the room. The TUXING TXES061 at about £152.99 is the best value because it has the largest sample, 3.9 from 737 ratings, and reviewers use it for rifle fills. Its table says 110 V and reviews say there is no auto-stop. The £132 SDKEHUI is not the best-value award, because UK reviews include a blown gauge and exposed live parts.
TUXING TXES061 4500 psi PCP air compressor
Largest review file at about £152.99, used by reviewers for rifle fills, after the 110 V field and the missing shut-off are already deducted.
