About product

The 3.0 mm tungsten steel drill bit

A single diameter from the DSPIAE modeling range, according to the name intended for plastic models. Among the single diameters it marks the upper limit you usually meet in modeling practice.

Where such a large diameter comes into play

For fine detailing you will not use this size, as it is far too coarse for that. It comes into play elsewhere: in larger holes in hulls and fuselages, in lightening thick plastic parts, in runs for wires and cabling in a diorama, and above all in anchoring a finished model. A hole of this diameter takes a pin on which the model stands safely in a display base or in flight attitude on a stand.

At larger diameters, though, drilling in stages pays off most. Going straight at three millimeters into a thin plastic wall carries a high risk that the tip wanders or that the wall breaks through. So pilot-drill with a smaller diameter and open the hole out in two or three steps. It takes a few minutes longer, but the hole comes out round and on its axis.

Key features

  • 3.0 mm diameter, the upper limit of the range of single bits
  • Tungsten steel according to the manufacturer
  • Suited to anchoring holes and to lightening parts
  • Opening out in stages from a smaller diameter is advised

Who it is for

For the modeler who fits a finished model into a display base or a diorama, and for anyone who needs a hole larger than those small bits can handle.

Sharp tool, keep out of the reach of children. Clamp the part firmly while drilling, as at larger diameters the tool bites easily and spins the part round.

FAQ

With thin walls it is better not to. Pilot-drill with a smaller diameter and open the hole out in two or three steps, and it will come out round and on its axis.

Most often for anchoring the model to a display base or a stand, for lightening thick parts and for runs for wires in a diorama.

At larger diameters the bit bites and turns the part. The part therefore has to be clamped or held firmly, and never drill toward your own palm.
