Tune Air Pressure for Precision Spraying

The Tamiya 74552 Air Control Valve gives modellers a simple way to tweak airflow on the fly. By making small changes to the valve, you can better manage atomisation and control paint delivery when tackling intricate sections.

Feature Highlights of the Tamiya Air Control Valve

Adjustable Airflow: Loosening or tightening the nut alters the air output so you can match spray to the task at hand.
Compatibility: Supplied with a PF1/8 (S) size joint, it pairs with most hobby airbrush connectors that use this standard.
Limitations: Do not use this valve with the Compact Compressor (Item 74533) or the Spray-Work Basic Airbrush (Item 74531).

Will this affect my compressor performance?

The valve reduces airflow downstream of the compressor but does not change the compressor's output. Use it to fine tune delivery at the brush rather than as a substitute for regulator adjustments on the compressor.

Is it suitable for lacquer paints?

Yes, it will help control airflow with thicker paints, but always thin and test the paint to suit your airbrush and nozzle before working on a model.

How do I avoid leaks after fitting?

Check all thread seals and hand-tighten fittings. If needed use a small amount of thread tape on metal threads and run a leak test at low pressure before painting.
