A metal quick coupling with a 1/8 inch thread for quickly joining a hose to a compressor or to an airbrush.
Responsibility details are not available.
Anyone who paints with more than one color reconnects the hose again and again. Screwing the thread on every time is a delay and above all it wears out the seal, which then starts to let air through exactly in the middle of the work. A quick coupling splits the joint into two parts: one stays permanently on the hose or on the compressor, the other on the airbrush, and the connection is then made with a single click.
The coupling serves both for joining a hose to a compressor and for a quick change of airbrush during the work.
It is advisable to wrap the thread with teflon tape before screwing it in; without it the joint does not seal and the pressure in the hose fluctuates. Tighten by hand or with a wrench only gently, because overtightening deforms the seat and the joint starts to leak. If you work with several airbrushes, it pays to obtain a counterpart for each of them; reconnecting then comes down to a moment and the paint left in the nozzle has no time to dry in the meantime. Before the first use, check whether the counterpart really seats all the way, otherwise the joint holds but the valve inside stays throttled and the spray from the airbrush will be weaker than you are used to. It also pays now and then to blow the inside of the coupling through with dry air, because condensate from the compressor settles in it and gets into the paint the next time you work.
