Plastic Beams 5mm Square Tube is a plastic profile with a hollow square section 5 mm across, material for building parts of your own.
Responsibility details are not available.
Modeling material, not a kit. It is a rod profile with a square section five millimeters across that is hollow inside. It is the cavity that makes it a more versatile stock item than a solid bar: a wire, an axle or a thinner profile can be pushed through it, and the joint gains both guidance and strength.
Most often when building parts that are not in the box. Beams for shelters and scaffolding, the frames of carts and trailers, railing posts, reinforcements under the floor of a diorama or simply a prop that holds a heavier part in position until the glue sets. It is useful outside the model itself too, for instance as the skeleton of a base or as a spacer when building layers up.
It can be cut with a sharp knife by deepening a score gradually, but with a hollow section a fine saw is better, so that the wall is not crushed. Level the ends square with a file, or the joint will open up. It is glued with a liquid cement for plastic applied into the seam, which softens the parts and joins them with no visible excess. Before painting, sand the surface with a fine paper and spray a filler primer.
It is worth keeping the material in stock in several sections, because the need usually arises in the middle of work already under way.
