Threaded Shafts Pack Tamiya 70182 for Hobby and Class Projects

The Tamiya 70182 Threaded Shaft Set contains a useful assortment of shafts, washers and nuts that suit a wide range of hobby and educational builds. The selection of threaded pieces allows you to construct secure joints and try different linkage layouts without much fuss. It is a practical addition to any modeller's or teacher's parts drawer.

What the Kit Contains

Included in the kit you will find:

  • 3mm x 23mm threaded shafts - 8 pieces
  • 3mm x 32mm threaded shafts - 10 pieces
  • 4mm x 18mm threaded shafts - 10 pieces
  • 3mm washers - 28 pieces
  • 3mm nuts - 28 pieces

These parts fit many Tamiya kits and other models that accept 3mm and 4mm fittings, delivering dependable thread engagement for assembled parts. The threaded form speeds up build and teardown during trial-and-error design sessions.

Practical Use in Workshops and Lessons

This set is helpful when teaching basic mechanical ideas such as rotation, bearing points and fastener function. The different shaft lengths let tinkerers explore alternative geometries and build robust prototypes for testing.

They are intended for general Tamiya applications that call for 3mm or 4mm fasteners, but you should measure the receiving holes to ensure a good fit with gearbox components.
Yes, threaded shafts, nuts and washers are reusable provided the threads are not damaged; inspect parts for wear before reusing in precision mechanisms.
Hand-tighten initially to align parts, then use small drivers to final-torque. Using washers helps distribute load and prevents parts from digging into softer materials.
