About product

Long exhaust springs 1:12, the second type

Tiny springs in 1:12 scale with which a model imitates the real ones that secure the joints of exhaust pipework on racing machines. The spring has its reason there: an exhaust expands as it heats up, so the joints must not be bolted up solid, and a spring holds a joint while letting it work. On a model it is a small thing, but one that tells at once that the builder has seen the real machine and not just the instructions.

Use

  • securing the joints of exhaust pipework on motorcycles
  • the joints of headers on racing cars
  • detailing exposed exhaust systems
  • small springs elsewhere on a model where they are needed

Building and painting tips

The springs are tiny and jump away while being handled, so work with tweezers and over a mat. They are fitted to the model only after the exhaust has been painted, or paint will get into the coils and the spring will lose its definition. They are held by a drop of super glue at each end. The spring itself suits a dark metallic shade with a hint of heat discoloration, that is, with a shift toward blue-violet around the joint. The longer version suits joints of larger diameter and places where a spring bridges a greater distance.

Who the set is for

  • builders of motorcycle and racing car models in 1:12 scale
  • modelers who detail exhaust systems
  • anyone interested in exposed racing machines
  • more advanced builders used to small parts

The set is an accessory, not a kit. The model, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The pipework expands as it heats up. A spring holds the joint and at the same time lets it work, which a solid bolt does not.

Only after the exhaust has been painted. Otherwise paint gets into the coils and the spring loses its definition.

A longer spring bridges a greater distance and suits joints of larger diameter. The short version is a separate item.
