Hexagonal Bolt w/Washer 0.4 mm

Hexagonal bolts with washers 0.4 mm (GAS HANS)

The set contains miniature hexagonal bolts with an integral washer, 0.4 mm in size. The parts are 3D printed from resin, they have sharply defined edges and they serve to replace coarse plastic detail with a faithful imitation of a real bolted joint. It is neither a paint nor a kit but an accessory for raising the realism of a finished model.

Use

• Imitating bolted and riveted joints on the fuselage, the engine, the landing gear or the tanks.
• The parts are carefully separated from their carrier frame or casting block and glued with cyanoacrylate (superglue).
• A small dimple can be drilled in the plastic beforehand for accurate seating.
• The 0.4 mm size suits fine detail in smaller scales and in cockpits.

Who it is for

For advanced modelers who want to lift the detail of aircraft, vehicles or ships above the level of an ordinary kit. Working with parts this small calls for tweezers, a sharp knife and a steady hand.

The accessory is supplied unpainted. Handle it over a tray, as the small parts are easily lost; protect your airways when sanding resin.
