How should I connect my Paasche and Aztek airbrush to 1/8" quick connect?
Posted by Svenne Duva on Monday, November 9, 2020 12:57 PM

Hi,
I have a HS Evolution AB and it seems to work with most hoses, I think it is a 1/8" thread and this fits my quick connect sets. So far all good :|

I recently decided to get something with a wider spray pattern and bought a used Aztek.

What kind of thread is that? Nothing I have in the spares box seems to be even close.

I got so frustrated after fumbling arround on the net I decided to get myself a Paasche.

This is now inbound - and now I am reading this is yet another thread.

My take on this is that if I can find relevant adapters I can get them all over to the 1/8" quick release.

But what are the threads??? Is this some sort of secret game... I am reading the badger is a M5*0,5 and adapters would be availablle for this - but I have found nothing for the above.

Hate to in a situation were I am ordering stuff from all over te world only because my reserch is a mess :|

Thank you!
Svenne

Last I knew Amazon listed the adapters for Badger and for Paasche to 1/8 or 1/4. But I haven't looked recently.

Wow, I didn't even know they made 1/8 quicks.  I could have used one instead of the T fitting I used.

Now that I think about it, I needed an adapter to attach the quick-disconnect to my Paasche, but I think it came with the airbrush.

Dear all,

Thank you for taking your time and your kind replies to my query!

@Eaglecash867, I am pretty sure there is an adapter shipped with the badger.

The link above actually states that the Quickrelease doesn't fit Paasche without one.

So I am eager to see whats in the box when it arrives tomorrow :)

And I found one for the Aztek -> manufactured by Harder & Steenbeck.

LOL - that  IS competative!

Label on the bag says;
Item # 104333 plug in nipple NW 2.7mm with female thread for AZTEK.

But no mentioning of what thread that is :| 

Anyway - doesn't matter since shipment from Germany  was over night and the thing is hear nw and fits like a glowe ;)

Very Best Regards

Svenne
