Iwata Eclipse HP-CS Airbrush – Listing Professional Grade • Made in Japan • Industry Benchmark Iwata Eclipse HP-CS
Gravity Feed Airbrush
Dual Action • 0.35mm Nozzle • Fine Detail to Wide Coverage
Nozzle Size 0.35 mm Cup Capacity 0.24 oz / 7 ml Feed System Gravity Feed Action Dual Action Overview The Airbrush That Professionals Reach For First Industry Recognition
Ranked #1 All-Around Airbrush across multiple professional review platforms. Described by the airbrush community as \"one of the most popular airbrushes of all time\" — trusted by beginners and masters alike for over two decades.
The Iwata-Medea Eclipse HP-CS is not simply a tool — it is the benchmark by which other airbrushes are measured. Engineered in Japan with Iwata\'s exacting precision standards, this dual-action gravity feed airbrush delivers an exceptional spray range: from ultra-fine detail lines all the way to broad, even coverage — with a single, smooth trigger movement.
Whether you are a professional automotive artist, a fine art painter, a miniature and model hobbyist, a cosplay maker, or a student picking up your first serious airbrush, the HP-CS meets you exactly where you are — and grows with you as your skill advances. This is the airbrush you buy once and use for life.
Features Engineered Without Compromise 01 Dual Action Control
Press down for air, pull back for paint — independently controlling both gives you the freedom to shift from a hairline to a wide spray in a single continuous stroke, without lifting your finger.
02 0.35 mm Precision Nozzle
The exclusive E3 compression-fit nozzle (no threads — no cross-threading) delivers fine-detail spray while the 0.35 mm bore allows heavier paints to pass through with far less thinning required.
03 Gravity Feed Cup with Lid
A 0.24 oz (7 ml) funnel-shaped gravity cup sits on top of the brush for efficient, low-waste paint flow and easy color mixing. The lid prevents spills during use and keeps paint fresh between sessions.
04 Quick-Flush Cutaway Handle
The uniquely designed cutaway handle provides immediate access to the needle for fast cleaning, color changes, and maintenance without the need for complete disassembly.
05 Break-Resistant Spring-Steel Needle
Iwata\'s spring-steel needle resists the bending and breakage common in lesser airbrushes, while solvent-resistant needle packings ensure long-lasting compatibility with oil-based, water-based, and pearlized paints.
06 High-Flow Atomization
The Eclipse\'s signature \"high flow\" characteristic allows it to atomize thicker acrylics, textile colors, and specialty paints with smooth, consistent results — dramatically reducing the time spent thinning or adjusting mixes.

Compatibility Compressor & Connection Notes Important Buyer Information
The Iwata Eclipse HP-CS connects to any standard airbrush compressor via a standard 1/8\" BSP fitting. It is compatible with all major airbrush compressor brands. A compressor is sold separately and is not included with this listing. Iwata recommends operating pressure of 15–30 PSI for most paint types. For optimal performance with thicker acrylics, 20–25 PSI is ideal. The HP-CS is also compatible with the optional 0.50 mm nozzle kit (sold separately) for broader coverage applications.
