About product

Styrene rectangular strip 2.0 x 3.0 x 350 mm (AK interactive)

A section of styrene (polystyrene) with a cross section of 2.0 x 3.0 mm and a length of 350 mm, in a package of 8 pieces. Two millimeters of thickness move the strip out of the category of detail trim and in among genuinely load-bearing members: it holds its shape even over a longer span and will take other parts being glued to it. At the same time it is still subtle enough not to look coarse in the usual modeling scales.

Use

  • load-bearing beams and the longitudinal members of frames
  • the skeleton of carts, trailers and simple machines
  • the edges and corner stiffeners of boxes and containers
  • heavier braces and props in diorama buildings
  • an auxiliary structure onto which thinner cladding is glued

Tips for working with styrene

At this thickness breaking along a scored line may no longer give a flat face; a fine saw and leveling with a file or a sanding block is more comfortable. Build frames on a flat surface and rather in sections, so that the structure does not twist. Cement for plastics welds the joint chemically, so once dry it can be sanded away to nothing as a single piece. If you later clad the skeleton with thin strips, allow for the thickness of the cladding when you set out the dimensions.

Who the profile is for

For modelers who build their own structures, superstructures and dioramas and need a member that holds its shape. It also serves well as a hidden load-bearing skeleton under visible cladding made from thinner sections.

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

FAQ

In its thickness of 2 mm. It holds its shape over a longer span and will take other parts being glued to it, so it suits a load-bearing skeleton, not just visible detail.

At this thickness use a fine modeling saw and level the cut with a file or a sanding block. Breaking along a scored line may no longer give a flat face.

Cement for plastics bonds styrene chemically, so once cured the assembly behaves as a single piece and can be sanded and filled.

The package holds 8 pieces 350 mm long.
