About product

DSPIAE BB-1.5 brass bars, 1.5 mm in diameter

Six solid brass bars one and a half millimeters in diameter. The size lies between fine details and load-bearing pins: it carries the arm of a figure or the front section of landing gear, yet it still hides inside a relatively slim part. It is also used as a replacement for a broken plastic pin and as an axle where a part is to stay able to turn.

Properties of the material

Brass is solid and markedly stiffer in bending than plastic, while it can still be shaped with a file. An end ground to a cone makes it easier to insert. Once degreased the surface takes primer and paint without trouble, but without a primer paint will not hold on smooth metal.

Recommended procedure

  • Drill with a 1.5 mm bit and test the fit dry.
  • Shorten it with a saw, or by scoring and snapping it, not with cutters for plastic sprues.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) or two-part resin.
  • Roughen the part to be glued; smooth metal turns in the glue.

Who they are for

The set is aimed at modelers who do conversions, at builders of robot figures and at traditional modelers who reinforce the joints of canopies, landing gear and masts. One and a half millimeters is the size reached for whenever the finest ones seem too little and two millimeters already too much.

Keep the short offcuts; an ordinary pin measures only a few millimeters and the remnants will do for plenty of joints. Protect your eyes when shortening metal, as the flying end carries considerable speed, and wipe the filings away with a damp cloth after sanding.

FAQ

For the pins of medium-sized parts, the axles of turning parts and replacing a broken plastic pin. For the load-bearing axles of large models it is already thin.

Six bars. The number varies across the range according to the diameter.

At this diameter it can, but make the bend around something rounded. A sharp bend cracks brass.

Smooth metal needs degreasing and a primer with good adhesion to metal. Without one the paint comes off during handling.
