Beschreibung
A model painter changes colour more often than a printer changes toner. Four mixes loaded in four brushes, one compressor, and the work moves at the speed of the hand rather than the speed of cleaning. The Quad Manifold is a bench holder and air splitter in one: four gravity-feed airbrushes stand upright in their own seats, each fed from a single 1/8 inch supply that splits four ways.
Keeping a gravity brush upright is not cosmetic housekeeping. The paint sits in the cup above the nozzle, so an upright brush keeps its mix where gravity can feed it, with no dribble into the air cap between passes. Four seats in a row means four colours stay separated, which removes the flush-and-refill cycle that eats most of a painting session. The splitter is direct-connect at 1/8 inch, the thread standard shared by most gravity brushes, quick-disconnect tails and compressor manifolds, so the holder sits inline between the hose and the brushes instead of demanding its own regulator.
The set is deliberately small. It occupies the footprint of a coffee mug next to the compressor, which matters on a bench that already holds a spray booth, a cutting mat and a rack of paints. The AC121 is supplied as a complete holder set, so nothing else has to be sourced to get four colours running at once, and the China Mainland and United States stock listings carry the same unit with different dispatch origins.
Four colours within reach, one compressor running, and the sink stops interrupting the work.
What Makes It Different
- ✦Holds four gravity-feed airbrushes upright at the same time
- ✦1/8 inch splitter feeds four brushes from a single air line
- ✦Direct-connect threads, so no second compressor or manifold is needed

- ✦Works for model paint, hobby work, craft and cake airbrushing
- ✦Footprint small enough to sit beside a compressor on a bench
- ✦OPHIR AC121 set, 1/8 connectors, supplied as a complete holder

Where It Earns Its Place
Scale modellers running four camouflage colours on one airframe are the obvious users, and so are figure painters working a base coat, two mid tones and a wash in the same sitting. Cake decorators get the same benefit on a much shorter cycle, because food colour moves from cup to cup faster than acrylic and every change of colour costs a wash and a dry. Prop makers and miniature commission painters, who batch a dozen figures at a time, use the holder to keep four colours live instead of chasing one brush through the sink between each stage.

Questions Buyers Actually Ask
Q: Will my airbrush fit the holder?
It is built for gravity-feed brushes with the standard 1/8 inch inlet, which covers most hobby brushes from the major brands. Side-feed and siphon-feed brushes sit at an angle and are not what the four seats were shaped for, so check your inlet thread before ordering.
Q: Does it include an air hose or a compressor?
No. The set is the four-brush holder plus the 1/8 inch splitter. You supply the air line, the quick-disconnect tails and the compressor, and the splitter threads inline between them.
Q: Can a small compressor drive four brushes?
Yes, within reason. You paint with one brush at a time, so the compressor only has to hold working pressure through one nozzle, and the extra outlets are closed or idle. If you open all four simultaneously on a tankless unit, pressure will sag, which is a compressor limit rather than a holder limit.
Q: How much cleaning does it actually save?
It saves the colour changes, not the end of session clean. Between colours you lift one brush and pick up the next, with no flush, no dry, no refill. At the end of the session all four still get their usual rinse.
Q: Is the thread 1/8 BSP or 1/8 NPT?
It is the 1/8 inch thread used on hobby airbrush fittings. Since both standards appear on imported brushes, test-fit your tails dry before you tighten anything, and use an adapter if your hose is NPT.
Q: Why are there two listings?
They are the same AC121 set dispatched from different stock regions, China Mainland and the United States. Choose the one that matches where you need it delivered.
