Aber - stainless steel tow cable, diameter 2.5 mm, length 125 cm is the thickest braided wire in this range, intended for the massive tow and anchor cables of models in larger scales.
Responsibility details are not available.
A braided steel wire from the Polish maker Aber in the thickest form in this range: a diameter of 2.5 mm and a length of 125 cm, that is a quarter of a meter more than the thinner variants have. It is a modeling material that you cut as needed, not a finished part for a particular model. Real braiding gives the cable the correct structure as well as the metallic sheen that cannot be imitated with a molding or with string.
A thick diameter comes into its own where the cable is meant to look robust - on the anchor and tow cables of ship models, on the hoisting cables of cranes, on winches and towing gear in dioramas and on vehicles in large scales. Stainless steel does not corrode, holds the shape you set and will take repeated bending while you look for the right sag.
Secure the end of the cable with a drop of cyanoacrylate glue or tin it before cutting, otherwise it will unravel. Use pliers with hardened jaws or a miniature grinder with a cutting disc for cutting; nippers intended for plastic will be ruined on stainless steel of this diameter. The end eyes can be made with a loop secured with tin, or else from photo-etched parts or thin brass sheet. It can be painted after degreasing and applying a metal primer, or the cable can be left in bare metal and merely darkened with a wash and brought out with rust pigments.
This is a modeling material, not a finished part. Glue, paints and end eyes are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
