Precision Sprue Trimmer for RC Kits - Tamiya 69949 Side Cutter Alpha  [69949]

Precision gate and detail cutter for model building

This side cutter is intended for cleanly removing plastic sprues and small detail pieces during RC assembly and upkeep. The low profile helps access crowded areas on assembled components, while the angled jaw delivers tidy cuts before final assembly or paintwork.

Typical bench tasks include separating parts from runners, trimming flash and readying pieces for trial fits. Make short, deliberate cuts close to the part to avoid stressing thin sections.

How to use

• Make angled cuts and leave a tiny bit of material for finishing with a hobby knife if needed.
• Clamp the part or keep your fingers clear of the cutting edge to avoid bending fragile elements.
• After use, remove residue and store the cutter dry to prevent glue or paint from gumming the jaws.
