About product

DSPIAE BB-2.0 brass bars, 2 mm in diameter

Six solid brass bars two millimeters in diameter. This size is a good compromise: it still hides inside most parts, yet it already carries a joint or the whole arm of a robot figure. It is used for the pins of movable joints, for axles and for the internal reinforcement of parts that would sag in plastic.

What brass can do

The material is solid and markedly stiffer in bending than plastic, while it does not go brittle with age the way a glued styrene joint does. The ends can be ground to a cone and the bar then goes even into a hole that is not an exact fit. The surface is primed and painted as usual once degreased.

Recommended procedure

  • Drill with a two millimeter bit and always test the fit dry.
  • Shorten the bar with a saw or a knife against a support, not with cutters meant for plastic.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) or two-part resin.
  • Roughen the part to be glued, otherwise the smooth metal turns in the joint.

Who they are for

The set is for modelers who do conversions, for builders of robot figures and for anyone repairing a broken part. Two millimeters is the most frequently reached-for size in the whole range, because almost anything can be reinforced with it, from the leg of a figure to a mast on a ship.

A piece of bar is left over after every repair, so it pays to keep even short offcuts; pins are usually only a few millimeters long. Use eye protection when shortening metal, as the flying end carries considerable speed, and wipe the filings away with a damp cloth after sanding.

FAQ

It is the most universal size in the range. It still hides inside an ordinary part, yet it already carries a joint or the arm of a larger figure.

Six pieces. The number varies across the range according to the diameter; the thinner sizes have more of them.

A two millimeter one. Always test the fit dry, as plastic may shrink slightly after drilling.

Most often because it stayed smooth. Roughen and degrease the part of the bar to be glued beforehand.
