Air & Pneumatics

Pipestock supplies a complete range of compressed air and pneumatic products for workshops, garages, factories and commercial premises. The range covers everything from air compressors and air treatment through to pipework systems, couplings, hose reels and point-of-use tools, with products from established brands including Prevost, John Guest, Nuair, PCL and Walraven.

A compressed air system is only as efficient as its weakest component. Leaking joints, undersized pipework and poorly treated air all reduce performance, increase energy use and shorten the life of connected tools and equipment. Choosing compatible products for air generation, treatment, distribution and use helps to deliver clean, dry air at a consistent pressure wherever it is needed.

Products within the air and pneumatics range are used in a wide variety of settings, including:

• Workshop and garage compressed air ring mains
• Manufacturing and production lines
• Automotive repair and tyre servicing
• Machinery and pneumatic control systems
• Maintenance, cleaning and assembly operations
• Upgrades and extensions to existing compressed air installations

Pipework Systems

• Prevost: Compressed air pipework systems, couplings and accessories for building complete air distribution networks.
• John Guest: Push-fit compressed air pipework systems designed for fast, clean installation without specialist tooling.
• Tube Systems: Flexible pneumatic tubing and push-in fittings for machinery, control panels and smaller air installations.
• Kits: Pre-configured compressed air pipework kits that simplify planning and ordering for common installation layouts.
• 150lb 316 Stainless Steel Fittings: Threaded stainless steel fittings for compressed air and general pipework applications where corrosion resistance is important.
• Rail & Support Systems: Rails, brackets and pipe clips for securely fixing and supporting pipework runs.

Air Generation & Treatment

• Air Compressors: Air compressors for workshop, trade and industrial use, including models from Nuair.
• Air Filtration & Treatment: Filters, regulators and lubricators for removing contaminants and controlling air pressure and quality.

Connection & Distribution

• Couplings & Adaptors: Quick release couplings, adaptors and connectors, including PCL products, for joining hoses, tools and outlets.
• Push Button Safety Couplings: Safety couplings designed to reduce the risk of hose whip when disconnecting under pressure.
• Manifolds & Wall Brackets: Multi-outlet manifolds and wall-mounted drop points for providing several connections from a single supply.
• Air Hose & Reels: Air hose, recoil hose and retractable hose reels for flexible, tidy air delivery to the point of use.

Points of Use

• Blow Guns: Air blow guns for cleaning, drying and clearing debris from components and work areas.
• Air Tools: Pneumatic tools for automotive, assembly and maintenance tasks.
• Tyre Inflators: Tyre inflators for accurate inflation in garages, fleet workshops and service areas.

• Complete system range: Compressors, air treatment, pipework, couplings, hose and tools are all available, making it easier to specify and source a complete installation.
• Established brands: The range includes products from recognised manufacturers such as Prevost, John Guest, Nuair, PCL and Walraven.
• Choice of pipework systems: Rigid pipework, push-fit systems and flexible tubing cover everything from large workshop ring mains to compact machine connections.
• Improved air quality: Filtration and treatment products help protect tools and equipment from moisture, oil and particulate contamination.
• Safer working: Safety couplings, secure pipe supports and tidy hose management help reduce common workshop hazards.

• What is a compressed air ring main?
  • A ring main is a loop of pipework that distributes compressed air around a building. Because air can reach each outlet from two directions, a ring main helps maintain more consistent pressure across all drop points.
• Why is air treatment important?
  • Compressed air naturally contains moisture, oil and particles. Filtration and treatment remove these contaminants, protecting tools and equipment and improving the quality of finished work.
• What is a safety coupling?
  • A safety coupling is designed to release trapped air in a controlled way before the hose fully disconnects, reducing the risk of hose whip.
• Can couplings from different manufacturers be connected?
  • Only where they share the same coupling profile. Check the profile listed on the product page before combining couplings and adaptors from different ranges.
• Do you supply complete compressed air pipework kits?
  • Yes. Pre-configured kits are available in the Kits category, providing the main components needed for common installation layouts.
