TL;DR No flat-to-35-PSI timing test found for this model; two owners report roughly ±2 PSI gauge variance versus reference. Cordless convenience on Ryobi's ONE+ platform with auto-shutoff and backlit display; battery sold separately.
The PCL031B is an 18V cordless inflator on Ryobi's ONE+ battery platform, rated 160 PSI via a high-pressure port for tires and 16 SCFM through a separate high-volume port for inflatables. No flat-to-35-PSI community timing test found. Two owners report ±2 PSI gauge variance versus reference gauges. Auto-shutoff, backlit display, LED work light, quick-connect chuck, and onboard storage complete the package.
Best fit for existing Ryobi ONE+ tool owners who can share batteries. The 160 PSI max covers cars, light trucks, and sports balls. Skip it if you don't own the platform already, or if you need verified sub-4-minute fill times.
No UL or ETL certification confirmed in US safety databases as of May 2026. No active CPSC recall. Ryobi ONE+ batteries recycle via Call2Recycle at Home Depot; the tool body is standard e-waste.
No · the PCL031B is a bare-tool listing; the 18V ONE+ battery and charger are sold separately. If you already own any Ryobi ONE+ 18V tools, your existing batteries will work. All Ryobi ONE+ 18V batteries (1.5Ah through 9.0Ah) are compatible with the PCL031B.
The manufacturer rates the PCL031B at 160 PSI via the high-pressure port for tires. The high-volume port is rated at 16 SCFM for inflating items like air mattresses and pool toys. No independent community tests at the 160 PSI rated ceiling have been found as of May 2026.
No UL Listing or ETL Certification has been confirmed for the PCL031B in North American safety databases as of May 2026. Searches of the UL Product iQ and ETL Intertek Listed Mark directories returned no confirmed database hit for this model. No active CPSC recall is on record for the PCL031B.
Two owners report approximately ±2 PSI variance compared to reference gauges. That level of variance is typical for this class of digital inflator. If precision is critical (e.g., track-day tire setup), verify with a separate calibrated gauge after inflation.
Yes · the PCL031B has two ports: a high-pressure port (up to 160 PSI) for tires and sports balls, and a separate high-volume port (16 SCFM) for low-pressure, high-volume inflatables like air mattresses, pool toys, and inflatable furniture. Included accessories cover Presta valves, standard Schrader valves via the quick-connect chuck, sports balls (needle), and pinch-valve inflatables.
