About product

DSPIAE BB-0.5 brass bars, 0.5 mm in diameter

Eight solid brass bars half a millimeter in diameter. The finest size in the whole range is used where a plastic part simply does not exist in a thin enough form: aerials, lightning conductors, instrument rods, struts between the surfaces of a biplane, rigging and small pins inside tiny parts.

What to expect from the material

Even in this section brass is incomparably stiffer than stretched sprue and, above all, it does not deform with heat. A brass aerial survives even a clumsy grab at the model. The material can be polished to a metallic shine, so some elements need no painting at all.

Recommended procedure

  • Drill the holes in a hand holder with a 0.5 mm bit; machine drilling breaks a thin bit.
  • Shorten it with a sharp knife against a hard surface; this diameter snaps easily.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue), dosed onto small joints with a pin or a piece of wire.
  • Straighten longer lengths before fitting by drawing them between your fingers, not with pliers.

Who they are for

The set is for builders of aircraft, ships and vehicles who replace soft plastic aerials and struts with metal, and for modelers of small scales, where every plastic detail is too coarse. For load-bearing joints this size is weak; for those reach for the heavier diameters in the range.

Protect your eyes when working with thin metal; a cut-off end flies away very fast and at this diameter you will not find it on the floor again.

FAQ

Yes, and that is the main reason it is bought. Brass does not deform with heat and survives even a careless grab at a finished model.

In a hand holder with a 0.5 mm bit. In a machine a bit of this size breaks easily.

Eight bars, that is the highest number in the range, along with the one millimeter diameter.

It will not. For pins and axles that transmit weight there are heavier diameters in the same range.
