The versatility of Roots® positive displacement blowers and compressors, available with various gearing options, standalone units, or complete packages.
The Roots-type blower is named after American inventors and brothers Philander and Francis Marion Roots, founders of the Roots Blower Company of Connersville, Indiana USA, who patented the basic design in 1860 as an air pump for use in blast furnaces and other industrial applications.
Blowers are usually air-cooled and oil-free. Their low efficiency limits these blowers to very low-pressure applications and compression in a single stage, even if two- and three-stage versions are available. Roots blowers are frequently used as vacuum pumps and for pneumatic conveyance.
What are roots blowers? A roots blower is a valve-less displacement compressor without internal compression. When the compression chamber comes into contact with the outlet port, compressed air flows back into the housing from the pressure side.

All Roots blowers are of a compact, sturdy design engineered for continuous duty and maximum reliability. These blowers have a time-tested lubrication system and an exclusive “figure-8” gearbox design that improves oil distribution to the timing gears and lengthens bearing life.
Feb 15, 2023 · Roots blowers have been around since the mid-1800s and can even be found in the Eaton lobe blowers found in modern ZL1 Camaros, Dodge Hellcats, and Shelby Mustangs.
Roots® compact and lightweight mobile vacuum blowers provide more CFM per pound of blower. Widest and most complete range of blowers for the toughest challenges.
What is a Roots Blower? A roots blower is a household name in various industries. It is characterized as a positive displacement lobe pump that is generally used to produce consistent air compressions. It works by pumping fluids using a pair of meshing lobes and is usually air-cooled and oil-free.
A Roots blower is a type of positive displacement pump that operates by trapping a fixed amount of fluid or gas and then expelling it against the system's pressure. Its fundamental design consists of two rotors, often called lobes, that rotate in opposite directions within a casing.
