Lightweight Tubing for RC Modding

The Tamiya 70262 5mm Plastic Beams are made for model makers who want adaptable parts for custom projects. Their square profile helps keep joints aligned and simplifies assembly tasks.

Versatile Joinery Options

These 5mm square tubes slot into mixed builds and pair well with 3mm fittings or larger 8mm elements. You can combine them with round, pipe, triangle and L-shaped components to expand construction choices.

Practical Uses in Modding

Model builders often use these beams as connectors and anti-rotation sleeves when joining multiple members. They help maintain straight runs and steady interfaces for mounts and small chassis sections.

Cutting and Decoration Tips

Score notches with a craft knife to bend or taper light sections, and use the Handy Craft Saw II or a thin blade saw for tougher cuts. Tamiya paints and cement work well to decorate and bond the finished pieces.

They are suitable for mixed assemblies and match commonly used Tamiya sizes such as 3mm alongside 5mm tubing for stepped builds.
Light bends can be formed by scoring with a modelling knife and folding. For removal of sections or precise cuts, use a fine craft saw for best results.
Sand contact areas lightly, then apply Tamiya plastic cement to join. Use compatible Tamiya paints to match panels and conceal seams.
