Removing broken nozzle threads can be intimating. We show you how to remove broken nozzle threads safely with just a masking knife and a few easy turns. Then you’ll be ready to install your new nozzle and get back to painting.
Airbrush nozzles are made from soft metal to ensure air tight metal to metal connections. Small fixed nozzles have delicate threads and can occasionally break. Take care when removing nozzles for deep cleaning or replacement and always make sure you have a spare.
The technique shown here will work with any airbrush which has a small, fixed nozzle. Please note that airbrushes with compression fit nozzles, like Iwata Eclipse CS, do not need to have their nozzles unthreaded. Compression fit nozzles are considered a single piece.
Be aware that some airbrush parts, like needles and nozzles, wear out over time and will need to be replaced. Think of these parts like the tires on a car.
Why QuickTech? There’s no shortage of how-tos and tutorials on the internet but airbrushers are still searching for solutions to common problems. That’s why Iwata created the QuickTech Experience. We’ve created videos that get right to the point so you can fix your problem and get back to painting. No intro to skip, no banter to mute, nothing to speed through. Just the content you came for from the most trusted name in airbrush. Be sure to subscribe to our channel so you don’t miss the next QuickTech release!

Before disconnecting your airbrush from the air hose:

2. Then hold down the main lever to release any stored air.
