About product

What the brass rod is for

A piece of straight metal profile is among the most useful materials on the bench: it replaces a plastic antenna that will bend sooner or later anyway, and it serves as a pin when joining heavier parts, as a wheel axle, a grab handle, a shaft, a railing post or as an internal stiffener for a long thin part. A diameter of 1.5 mm is on the border between wire and rod, so it holds its shape and can still be formed with pliers.

Dimensions and material

The rod is made of brass, it is 1.5 mm in diameter and measures 305 mm, that is a little over thirty centimeters. One piece is supplied. Brass cuts, solders and polishes well, and unlike plastic it holds its shape even in a thin section and does not break under load, so it suits places where the part gets handled.

How to work with it

  • divide it to length with a modeling saw or with nippers
  • clean the end up with a file after cutting, otherwise it stays squashed and burred
  • make bends with pliers over a rounded jaw, as a sharp bend cracks the material
  • it is bonded with super glue or two-part epoxy, or it can be soldered
  • degrease the surface before painting and lay down a primer

Who it is for

For builders who make their own parts, and for anyone who needs to reinforce a joint between heavy parts. Its use is not tied to one scale or to one field of modeling.

Terms of supply

The brass rod alone is supplied. Tools, glue and paints are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

One piece of brass rod 1.5 mm in diameter and 305 mm long.

A modeling saw or nippers. After cutting, clean the end up with a file, as pliers always squash it a little.

With super glue or with two-part epoxy, which gives more time to line things up. Cement for polystyrene will not bond metal.

Only on a prepared surface. Degrease the rod and spray it with a primer, and only then apply the top shade.

Yes, with pliers over a rounded jaw and gradually. A sharp bend in one spot cracks the material.
