Precision Triangle Rods for RC Upgrades

The Tamiya 70117 Plastic Beam set includes eight triangular rods, each 3mm thick and 40cm long, suited to RC modders and scale builders. These beams are handy for making custom mounts, reinforcing weak points, and adding tidy structural detail to models.

Good Choice for Custom Fabrication

With a triangular cross section these beams provide targeted stiffness and are easy to incorporate into bespoke parts. Cut and shape them to create brackets, gussets or internal supports that fit your specific build requirements.

Also Useful for Crafts and Prototypes

These beams are not limited to RC use. They are practical for craft projects, prototypes and educational modelling where predictable geometry and repeatable cuts are valuable.

Lightly sand the beams with fine grit, wipe away dust, apply a plastic primer and then paint. This sequence helps paint stick evenly and reduces risk of peeling.
They work well for moderate loads such as braces and mounts, but for heavy load points consider metal parts or reinforced composites. Use epoxy for stronger joints when needed.
A fine-tooth saw or rotary tool with a cutting disc will trim them quickly. Finish with needle files and sandpaper for a smooth edge and accurate fit.
