The ABER SR-04 set of precision steel rods is a specialized modeling material, designed for advanced detailing and construction work. It offers high dimensional precision and durability, crucial in scale modeling and creating models.
Key Applications
ABER SR-04 steel rods are ideal for creating and replicating fine structural elements in models. Their precise 0.4mm diameter makes them perfect for crafting:
Antennas and masts
Delicate railings and handrails
Small tubes and conduits
Axles for small wheels or movable parts
Handles and other bent details
Reinforcements in stress-prone components
They are used in a wide range of models, from military and civilian vehicles, through airplanes and ships, to dioramas and miniatures, where miniaturization and structural strength are required.
Key Technical Features
Material: High-quality steel, ensuring rigidity, bending strength, and resistance to deformation.
Diameter: 0.4 mm, ideal for replicating subtle details and connecting with photo-etched parts.
Length: 245 mm per rod, allowing for cutting into many smaller, precise sections.
Quantity per pack: 12 pieces, providing sufficient stock for multiple projects.
Precise Manufacturing: Each rod features a uniform diameter along its entire length and excellent straightness, which facilitates assembly and processing.
Ease of Processing: The rods can be precisely cut with metal shears or a hobby saw, bent using modeling tools, and glued with cyanoacrylate or epoxy adhesives. Soldering is also possible.
Compatibility and Versatility
ABER SR-04 steel rods are compatible with most modeling materials, including polystyrene (plastic), resin, wood, and other metals. Their versatility makes them a valuable addition to any modeler's workshop, regardless of preferred scale or model subject. They can be integrated with components from model kit sets, photo-etched parts, as well as scratch-building materials, which opens up wide possibilities for modification and creating custom solutions.
ABER products are highly regarded in the modeling community for their high quality and precise manufacturing, and the SR-04 steel rods are a valuable component, enabling the realization of the most demanding and ambitious modeling projects.
