🔧 1/8" BSP Thread🔌 Hose-Side Socket⚡ Click-Lock Release🎁 Gift Packaging
What Is This?
The hose-side half of the Gaahleri quick-release system. This female socket fits onto your compressor hose. Once installed, male adapters on your airbrushes click in and out instantly — no threading or tools required between brush changes.
Supplied in gift-style packaging.
Male vs Female — Which Do You Need?
🔌 Female socket — this product
Goes on the hose. Install once. All your airbrushes click into it.
🔧 Male adapter (sold separately)
Goes on each airbrush. One per brush.
Compatibility
✅ Gaahleri quick-release male adapters
✅ Any standard 1/8" BSP male quick-release plug
✅ Mounts to any 1/8" BSP hose end
⚠️ Heads Up
Female socket only — you still need male adapters on each airbrush to complete the quick-release setup. Male adapters are sold separately.
Verify your hose uses 1/8" BSP thread — some compressors (particularly US market) use 1/4" NPT which is not compatible.

What nozzle size do I need for miniatures?
0.3mm is the versatile all-rounder for base coats and priming; 0.2mm suits fine detail work. Larger nozzles (0.5mm) are for terrain and big surfaces.
Do I need a compressor with a tank?
A tank smooths the airflow and reduces pulsing, giving more consistent results — worth it if you spray regularly, but tankless compressors work fine for occasional use.
How do I keep an airbrush working well?
Flush with airbrush cleaner between colours and strip-clean after each session. Most spraying problems are cleaning problems.
