Total Control for Fine Detail to Medium Spraying

The Iwata Hi-Line HP-CH Gravity-Feed Dual-Action Airbrush delivers precise, responsive control for fine detail through to medium coverage. Built on the iconic HP Series—trusted by artists for over half a century—it’s the ideal choice for a wide range of creative applications, from intricate highlights to broader fills.

At the heart of the Hi-Line Series is Iwata’s Micro Air Control (MAC) Valve, which gives you fine-tuned, on-the-fly control over airflow. Whether you’re adding subtle texture with stippling or adjusting for perfect atomization, the MAC Valve ensures maximum flexibility without adjusting your compressor.

The HP-CH features a larger 0.24oz (7ml) gravity-feed cup, making it perfect for mixing colours directly in the cup and working with medium paint volumes. The quick-flush cutaway pre-set handle gives easy access to the needle for fast cleaning, while also letting you set a spray limit to increase precision and reduce hand fatigue.

Engineered for long-term performance, the HP-CH includes a durable spring-steel needle and solvent-resistant PTFE packings throughout all paint-bearing parts. It’s a robust and versatile tool for artists who need both finesse and reliability.
