The Tamiya 70262 5mm Plastic Beams provide a straightforward way to add structure to your RC projects. Their square profile helps produce stable joins and repeatable layouts.
The 5mm square tube sits well in modular projects and works in concert with narrower 3mm and wider 8mm pieces. You can incorporate round, pipe, triangular and L-shaped inserts to vary construction geometry.
These beams are commonly used as connectors, spacers and anti-rotation elements to keep mounted components from twisting. They are handy when building a small chassis, rack or custom bracket.
Use a hobby knife to score and bend thin sections, and employ the Handy Craft Saw II or a Thin Blade Craft Saw for heavier cuts. Finish with Tamiya paints and plastic cement to bond and tidy up exposed edges.
