Flexible 3mm Square Rods for Custom Model Work

Tamiya 70054 3mm square plastic rods are a go-to material for hobbyists aiming to refine their model construction. Made from resilient plastic, these rods balance flexibility with strength for uses like scratch building, structural supports and architectural mock ups. Suitable for both seasoned builders and newcomers, they make it easier to create precise frameworks and detailed shapes.

Measured Length and Accurate Profile

Each rod is 40cm long, giving plenty of stock for multiple parts and projects. The 3mm square cross section fits common modelling scales and helps deliver straight, stable assemblies. Their dimensions and finish mean they work well for fine RC modifications as well as larger scale models.

Works Well for Creative and School Projects

These rods are also popular for art classes and design mock ups beyond RC modelling. They cut, sand and glue cleanly so you can shape components without fuss. Their simple profile makes them easy to adapt to custom fittings and joinery.

Yes, the 3mm square shape provides good rigidity for small supports, though for load bearing parts consider reinforcing with bulkheads or metal pins.
Cyanoacrylate glues and plastic model cement bond well; prep the surfaces by light sanding for a stronger joint.
They take standard model paints after a primer coat; use plastic primer for best adhesion and a smooth finish.
