About product

A 0.50 mm needle for a Fine Art airbrush

A replacement needle five tenths of a millimeter in diameter. The half-millimeter set is used where flow matters: base coats, filler primers, matte and gloss varnishes or thicker paints that pass through a fine nozzle with difficulty. The pattern is wider, the work faster and the risk of clogging noticeably lower.

When to reach for the heavier set

The difference between three and five tenths of a millimeter shows mainly on large areas. The fuselages of large aircraft, the bodies of vehicles or terrain bases are tedious to spray with a fine needle, and the paint at the edge has time to dry before the area joins up. A heavier needle allows a greater distance and lower pressure, so the surface stays smooth and free of grain. Do not expect detailed rendering, though; for that a finer pair is needed.

Maintenance that will lengthen the life of the needle

After every session, slide the needle out backwards, wipe the remains of paint off with a soft cloth and only then set about the nozzle. Dried paint at the point is the most common reason an airbrush stops spraying evenly. Never straighten the point with pliers, and tighten the needle chuck only enough for the needle not to give way when the trigger is pressed. A replacement needle in storage deserves the packaging it came in.

Who the needle suits

  • modelers who lay down base coats and varnishes
  • builders of large scales and diorama surfaces
  • users of thicker paints and filler primers
  • everyone who wants a second set for their airbrush

FAQ

The half-millimeter set is meant rather for areas. For narrow transitions reach for a finer diameter.

When changing to another diameter the nozzle has to be replaced as well, otherwise the pair does not seal and the airbrush does not work properly.

Yes, thicker primers are among the main reasons modelers get this size in particular.

It depends on handling. The state of the point decides, not the volume of paint sprayed, so inspect the point against the light regularly.
