Rocking Piston
Rocking piston compressors and vacuum pumps feature a flexible cup mounted on top of the connecting rod to create pressure as the cup maintains a seal against the cylinder walls in a rocking motion. Gast rocking piston pumps are oil-free, compact units with outstanding performance. They are available in many varieties with a wide selection of accessories. At RG Group, we have numerous options for you to choose from.

Benefits of Gast Rocking Piston Compressors
Gast rocking piston compressors and vacuum pumps have a variety of benefits, including:
- Performance: This small unit provides a high level of performance, bringing together characteristics of both diaphragm and piston air compressors.
- Clean air: These oil-free vacuum pumps are suitable for industries and settings where it's important to avoid oil mist contamination, such as in hospitals and laboratories.
- Variety: Gast rocking piston compressors are available in twin, single, tank-mounted and miniature styles for ideal use in a wide range of applications. Accessories provide additional versatility.
