Precision braided hose for scale model builders

If you want subtle authenticity in engine bays and underbody plumbing, the Tamiya 12662 braided hose gives realistic metal-mesh looks while staying easy to work with. It is designed to add convincing detail without heavy modification.

Accurate diameter for tight spaces

The braided hose has a 2.0mm outer diameter, making it suitable for routing around engines, fuel lines and brake assemblies in many 1/10 and smaller scale car and motorcycle kits. Its slim profile helps keep layouts neat and believable.

Flexible length for multiple uses

Supplied as a 1 meter length, this mesh pipe provides enough material for several small jobs or a full detail pass on a single build. The internal plastic tube keeps it flexible for curved runs while maintaining the braided exterior appearance.

Specifications

For most installs use a drop of model cement at anchor points or small cable clamps made from styrene. The plastic inner tube bonds well with common modelling glues.
Yes. Use thin coats of acrylic or enamel suitable for plastic. Masking the ends first preserves the inner tube colour and keeps a neat transition.
The 2.0mm OD is compact enough for tight routing, but check clearance in your specific kit before final fixing. The flexible core helps when bending around tight corners.
