About product

Styrene profile rod 1.0 x 5.0 x 350 mm (AK interactive)

A flat profile in styrene (polystyrene) with a cross section of 1.0 x 5.0 mm and a length of 350 mm, supplied in a package of 10 pieces. The ratio of small thickness to fairly large width makes it a typical plank strip: wherever you need a flat band, cladding or a board, it suits better than a rod with a square cross section. Styrene is the same material that injection-molded kits are made of, so it joins to kit parts with ordinary cement for plastics and behaves the same way when sanded and painted.

Use

  • imitating planks, decking and boarding on beds, platforms and diorama structures
  • side trim, rims and covering strips on superstructures
  • flat stiffeners on the inside of large smooth surfaces that would otherwise bow
  • ramps, walkways, floors and simple boards or signs
  • adding a part that is missing from a kit or has been damaged

Tips for working with styrene

A thin profile is best divided by scoring with a sharp knife and snapping along the scored line; for exact lengths it pays to measure against the part rather than by a ruler. It is bonded with thin cement for plastics, which runs into the joint by capillary action and joins the material chemically, or with a thicker cement where you need time to align things. Before painting it is enough to degrease the surface and spray it with primer just like kit plastic. For a convincing wood texture you can roughen the surface lightly with sandpaper or a toothed blade before painting.

Who the profile is for

For modelers who modify, finish or scratch-build parts and dioramas, and for anyone who wants to keep a stock of basic building material in the workshop. Working with the profiles needs no special tools, just a sharp knife and cement for plastics.

Glue, paints and tools are not included in the package. When cutting and sanding, work on a mat and in a well-ventilated room.

FAQ

Ordinary cement for plastic models. Styrene is the same material as the injection-molded kit parts, so thin cement runs into the joint and bonds the material chemically. Use super glue only where you are joining styrene to metal or resin.

Score it across with a sharp knife and snap it along the scored line. A thin cross section divides cleanly this way, without fraying; for thicker profiles a fine saw is more convenient.

Yes, it behaves just like kit plastic. It is enough to degrease the surface and spray it with primer, after which it takes acrylics and other modeling paints.

A thickness of 1 mm with a width of 5 mm gives a flat band, so it is used mainly for planks, cladding, wide trim and flat stiffeners. For upright posts or frames reach instead for a rod with a square cross section.
