Strengthen Your RC Builds with Tamiya 70173 Plastic Beams

For modelers wanting to reinforce or personalise their RC projects, the Tamiya 70173 Plastic Beams deliver a dependable option for structural work. These 1mm square plastic strips are handy for a range of build and repair tasks.

Precision for Custom Parts

The 1mm profile is great for fine detailing and small-scale custom components. Use the beams to back up chassis mounts or to fabricate delicate braces where slim, consistent cross sections are needed. Their rigidity helps keep small modifications stable under strain.

Easy to Trim and Fit

These beams are straightforward to cut, sand and glue into place, making them a practical choice when adapting or upgrading an RC model. Their simple geometry lets you add lightweight reinforcement without excessive bulk.

Use a good plastic-compatible cement or a cyanoacrylate glue for quick tack. Clean mating surfaces and test-fit before final adhesive to ensure a solid join.
A sharp hobby knife or fine metal snips give clean cuts. Light sanding with fine grit paper smooths edges for neat assemblies.
They are suitable for light-duty brackets and trims. For high-stress suspension parts consider using them as backing or combine with thicker supports to spread loads.
