Review on πŸ”Œ Iwata Medea BT 010 Air Hose: Versatile and Reliable Connecting Solution by Stephen Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is a BSP thread, not an NPT thread.

Great airbrush hose. I bought it together with Iwata Eclipse HP-CS and quick release. The 1/8th side is perfect for the quick release which is perfect for the airbrush. The end that screws into the air compressor is 1/4 BSP, not NPT. The air compressor I bought is 1/8th thread so I had to find an adapter for it. I went to my local hobby shop and they gave me a 1/4" NPT male to 1/8" BSP female adapter. The threaded side was correct, but there are 2 different thread standards, so the adapters only fitted crookedly. You don't want to cross the threads of the adapter and air hose. The product does not indicate whether the thread size is BSP or NPT. "British Standard Pipe (BSP)" I bought a PointZero airbrush sleeve with 1/4" BSP male thread and 1/8" female thread. fits me perfectly! I'm so glad I bought this because I threaded with an NPT thread adapter. That's how I found out that this product has BSP threads, not NPT threads. I hope this helps someone because I spent $15 on 2 other adapters.

Pros
  • The world's best and most versatile professional airbrush colors
Cons
  • Not sure
