Tyre reinflation calculator

Estimate the air volume and compressor run time needed to return to road pressure.

Tyres and compressor

Real flow falls as tyre pressure rises, so treat the result as optimistic.

The headline figure on the box, measured with no back-pressure.
A piston compressor delivers well under its rated flow once the tyre is at 30–40 psi. Set 100 if you are entering a measured figure.
Rated free-air flow is usually measured with little or no back-pressure. Actual inflation time may be substantially longer. Follow compressor duty-cycle and hose-temperature instructions.
