About product

Armor plate bolt heads 0.5 mm

A modeling accessory for a faithful rendering of the bolted joints on armor plate. It replaces detail that is often only suggested on the kit parts, or that disappears during sanding, and seats into a hole opened up with a pin vise. The figure 0.5 mm in the name gives the size of the part - it is the finest step in the manufacturer's range.

Use

  • mark the hole with a needle at the joint first, and only then drill
  • drill with a pin vise and a slightly smaller diameter, and the part will hold by itself
  • cut off the original molded detail and level the surface with abrasive paper
  • draw or trace the spacing; an irregular gap shows more than a coarser shape
  • apply the minimum of glue so that none flows around the head
  • go over the surface with primer before painting; it unifies the part and its surroundings

Scale and size

Let the scale of the build govern your choice of size. The 0.5 mm dimension corresponds to roughly 18 mm of real size in 1:35 scale, about 24 mm in 1:48 and some 36 mm in 1:72. This step therefore suits small joints in the larger scales and ordinary bolts in the small ones. The manufacturer also offers the larger sizes 0.7, 1, 1.2 and 1.5 mm as separate items, as well as a version with a hex head.

Who the set is for

It suits modelers of military vehicles who are repairing or adding bolted joints on armor, and builders who need to restore detail after sanding welds down. The work is fine, so you will not manage without tweezers and a sharp knife.

The accessory is supplied unpainted. Glue, paints and the pin vise are not included in the package.

FAQ

A hole is drilled at the joint with a pin vise in a slightly smaller diameter, the part is slid into it with tweezers and secured with a drop of glue. It is a good idea to cut off the original molded detail first and level the surface.

The 0.5 mm dimension corresponds to roughly 18 mm of real size in 1:35 scale, about 24 mm in 1:48 and roughly 36 mm in 1:72. Choose the size accordingly; the range also offers larger steps.
