About this product
This ARB Twin Motor On-Board 12V Air Compressor, model CKMTA12, is a high-performance, universal fit unit constructed from aluminum. Designed for stationary mounting, it offers robust air delivery for various applications, particularly in off-road vehicles. Its twin-motor design implies enhanced efficiency and power compared to single-motor compressors. Manufactured in the United States, it is considered a performance part and is suitable for placement in lower or rear vehicle areas.
Our take
The ARB Twin Motor On-Board 12V Air Compressor is clearly built for serious performance. The twin motor setup suggests significant air output and durability, making it ideal for demanding tasks like operating air lockers or rapidly inflating large tires. I appreciate the aluminum material for its robust yet relatively lightweight characteristics, which is key for vehicle integration. The universal fitment and specified placement options add to its versatility. While priced at $659.95, the US manufacturing origin and "Performance Part" designation justify the investment for enthusiasts needing reliable onboard air.
