Iwata Haupthebel (TAKUMI) I6124

I have all of the Kustom Series brushes, I always wanted to try the square trigger, but all the Kustom brushes use the same style trigger as the HP-CS (with the plunger pressed into the trigger). I was nervous to see if these would work in my Kustom HP-CH & Kustom Micron (note that’s Kustom with an “K”. It’s not a standard Custom Micron, they have been discontinued for a while now, unfortunately) and they work fantastic! I find them to be far more comfortable for me. I’m going to order one for my Kustom CS as well and may try the Blair spring in my K-CM for as much control as I can muster!

I was just going to replace the air valve /guide on my HP-CS and saw that the Eclipse Takumi trigger was an optional fit so decided to try it out. I prefer it a lot more than I thought I would -feels overall more stable. It’s not perfect on this brush though - seems like it’d be more comfortable with the trigger resting behind the first joint of my index finger, but with the cup mounted so close there isn’t room to position that way. Still, feels better than the stock CS trigger. Worth it for sure.

I love my Iwata Eclipse HP-CS, but the Main Lever can be uncomfortable with long use, this simple change corrects that problem.

I purchased this trigger after learning that it was fully compatible with my Eclipse HP-CS. I have always heard great things about the TAKUMI Trigger, which is very similar to the trigger on some of the Microns. I didn’t realize how much this trigger would make a difference until I received it. I could immediately tell that it felt much more comfortable and natural vs. the standard round trigger. After a couple days of using it regularly, I noticed I had much more control, as well as a significant decrease in finger fatigue. Yes, genuine Iwata parts certainly aren’t cheap, but I personally feel that the prices match the quality of the products they produce. I would recommend this trigger to any fellow airbrush artist. I plan on purchasing a couple more for my other Iwata brushes, as well as the similar Micron trigger for my Creos PS-771 (which I heard is a perfect fit also).

Last, but certainly not least, shout out to SprayGunner for being such a stellar company who go above and beyond for their customers. And a shout out to Zach/Zachary for packing this order with great care, as well as my couple more recent orders also! It’s very comforting knowing that my orders will always be accurately and carefully packed, and shipped at LIGHTNING speed! Many thanks!

it's one of the most ergonomic triggers I've ever used.
