Run any airbrush quietly with auto-shutoff that extends compressor life
Continuous airflow without a storage tank means the D-500 runs while you spray, maintaining steady pressure through extended sessions. This direct-drive approach eliminates the pressure fluctuations that can occur as tank compressors cycle on and off, delivering consistent atomization from first trigger pull to last. The 1/5 HP piston motor operates at 47 decibels, quiet enough for apartment studios and late-night work without disturbing others.
Paasche designed this compressor specifically for properly thinned acrylics, inks, and watercolors through any airbrush. It delivers up to 35 PSI depending on your airbrush's requirements, handling everything from fine illustration details to broader coverage work. The auto-shutoff feature cuts power when you release the trigger, reducing motor wear and extending compressor life between maintenance intervals.
At under ten pounds with an integrated carrying handle, the D-500 moves easily between workspace and storage. Standard 1/4 NPT fitting connects directly to Paasche hoses, while the included 1/8 BSP adapter accommodates hoses from other manufacturers. You get reliable performance for hobby painting, illustration, and craft work without the bulk or expense of tank-equipped systems.
