Evolution ALplus is the first Harder & Steenbeck airbrush made of anodized aluminium. It weighs only 56 grams, that is half its traditional counterparts. With its striking, matt black finish accented by chromed paint cup, trigger and body ring it can become a centerpiece of every workshop. Also its lightness won't strain your hand during longer airbrushing sessions. It's a gravity feed, double action airbrush equipped with a 0,20mm nozzle that is good for precise painting using all types of model paints. For bigger surfaces we recommend switching to a 0,4mm nozzle (sold separately). H&S airbrushes are equipped with a threadless nozzle fitting system - you only insert the nozzle into an air cap and then screw it into the airbrush's body tightening with your fingers. No tools necessary. This system makes it easy and fast to disassemble and clean the airbrush. Airbrush is equipped with PTFE needle and nozzle seals that are resistant to aggressive solvents.

The 2 ml paint cup is screwed into the airbrush body. By pressing down the trigger we open the air flow, by moving the trigger backwards we start dosing the paint. The more we pull the trigger back, the more paint will come out, creating a larger paint stream. Evolution ALplus airbrush is not equipped with a paint volume regulating screw. Can be upgraded with a Quick Fix system end piece to be able to do so.

What do you need an airbrush for?

Airbrush is a miniature spray pistol for precise painting, It sprays a paint over a given surface using a compressed air. As such an airbrush woll not work on its own - it needs to be connected to a compressed air source. Most widely used are miniature compressors that either supply the air straight to the airbrush or fill the air tank coupled with the compressor which is then supplied to the airbrush. Another way is to use expendable cans of pressurized air, though it is now a solution less convenient, more expensive and giving an overall worse result, thus - not recommended. Airbrushes are a great tools for painting model kits, graphics, hobby, nail art and even confectionery.

Harder and Steenbeck (from the founders' names August Harder and Wilhelm Steenbeck) is a renowned German manufacturer of airbrushes and airbrush accessories.

They have existed for almost 100 years now and started as a manufacturer of small electronic components for radio receivers then produced some school aid equipment and small mechanical elements for cars. In the 1950's they began manufacturing their first airbrushes mainly for professional industrial use. In the middle of 1990's they entered the consumer market with Grafo and Colani airbrush models. They really gained their reputation and wide acclaim at the end of that decade with the introduction of the Evolution model followed a few years later by Ultra and Infinity models. Apart from the highest quality and precision using only the best materials in airbrush production, the main feature of all H&S airbrushes is a universal nozzle mount among all of their models. H&S airbrushes are also made with modularity in mind, which means that by using various available accessories you are able to tailor them exactly for your needs.
