Tamiya 70157 Universal Plate - Solid Platform for Makers and Classes

The Tamiya 70157 Universal Plate set supplies two 160x60mm plates and a selection of hardware to support creative building and classroom experiments. Included items are shaft mounts, angle brackets, and rivet sets. The plates use 3mm diameter holes on a 5mm pitch, enabling neat, consistent assembly of frames and linkages.

Design Flexibility and Integration

These plates are designed to help learners explore basic mechanics and simple mechanisms. The shaft mounts and angle brackets increase layout options so you can experiment with different lever and gear arrangements. Their hole pattern makes it straightforward to combine with other construction parts commonly found in maker spaces.

Practical Project Ideas

Perfect for novices and experienced builders alike, the Tamiya 70157 set works well for quick prototypes, robot chassis pieces, or classroom demonstrations. Its simple geometry and reliable fitment encourage iteration and hands-on troubleshooting during engineering exercises.

Yes, the hole spacing is compatible with many hobby servo brackets once you use the included mounts or small adaptor plates to line up the holes.
The plates are durable plastic but prolonged exposure to sun and moisture can degrade them. Short outdoor trials are fine, but store and dry components after wet use.
Use the shaft mounts included to hold shafts; gears and pulleys can then be fixed with set screws or small collars. Ensure alignment by using the plate hole grid for steady support.
