About product

Resin brake calipers 1:24 from Hobby Design

This item is not a model of a car but a part for finishing one: a set of resin brake calipers for cars in 1:24 scale. The name gives them as castings meant for racing cars, so in shape they match a sporting multi-piston caliper of the kind a production kit usually only suggests or does not have at all.

Why the brakes in particular are worth it

The brake system on a car model is constantly in view. As soon as the car has wheels with open spokes, the observer looks straight through them at the hub, and a colored caliper draws the eye at once. Replacing a simplified plastic part with a casting of its own is therefore among the most effective small steps toward the credibility of a finished car.

Working with resin

First wash the castings in lukewarm soapy water so that the remains of mold release agent disappear from the surface. Cut the sprue gates off with a saw or a sharp knife and level the surface with abrasive paper, ideally wet because of the dust. Resin is joined with cyanoacrylate glue and needs a base coat before painting. A saturated red, yellow or graphite color sets the caliper apart from the face of the disc reliably.

Who the set suits

  • Builders of road cars in 1:24 who are fine-tuning the view into the wheel arch
  • Modelers of racing cars with an interest in chassis detail
  • Collectors swapping production plastic brakes for finer castings
  • Anyone building a car with open wheels and a visible hub

FAQ

The name gives only the calipers. Do not expect discs, wheels or tires with this item.

Cyanoacrylate glue applied in spots works well. Ordinary cement for polystyrene will not bite into this material.

Yes. A sporting caliper is fitted to plenty of road cars today, so it suits the build of an ordinary coupe as well.
