Thin Air Press Pump

Thin Air Press Pump

The Thin Air Press pump removes all the air from the small Thin Air Press vacuum bags in less than a minute.

It is a low volume, but high-pressure pump and will create almost 3000 lbs of pressure over the size of a skateboard deck!

This little pump also makes a "clicking" sound when all the air has been evacuated from the press. A very handy option to know when you can stop pumping. 

How to use this product:

Connect the pump to the grey valve that comes installed on your Thin Air Press vacuum bag and start pumping as quickly as you can.

If the bag is sealed properly, you will start to see the vinyl tighten around your pressing. When all the air is out, you will hear the pump make a clicking sound. We suggest you pump about 10 more times and then you are done!

Tip:

The pump works best with a little water in the slide. (rinse and shake out). 

Maintenance:

If the pump has been used a lot, you may need to add a little silicone spray, light oil or even cooking spray to keep the slide moving smoothly.
