Tamiya 70182 Threaded Shaft Set for Maker and Robot Projects

The Tamiya 70182 Threaded Shaft Set supplies a selection of threaded shafts alongside matching washers and nuts, ideal for makers and school robotics teams. These parts make assembling frames and moving linkages straightforward and repeatable. Use them when experimenting with different mechanical arrangements or when repairing models.

Kit Contents and Applications

Contents included in the pack are:

  • 3mm x 23mm threaded shafts (8 pieces)
  • 3mm x 32mm threaded shafts (10 pieces)
  • 4mm x 18mm threaded shafts (10 pieces)
  • 3mm washers (28 pieces)
  • 3mm nuts (28 pieces)

The sizes in this set match many Tamiya assemblies and compatible third-party models that require 3mm or 4mm fasteners. Threaded shafts allow quick swaps and adjustments, useful during iterative design and testing sessions in a workshop or classroom.

Using the Set in Educational Builds

For hands-on learning, these components illustrate mechanical ideas like leverage, rotation and structural fixing. The range of shaft lengths and plentiful hardware encourages experimentation and helps students visualise how different configurations affect motion and stability.

Yes, they are supplied ready to use, though you may need to cut and file some pieces for custom fits depending on your project needs.
A fine-toothed hacksaw or a rotary cutting tool works well. After cutting, smooth the end with a file to avoid burrs that could impede assemblies.
Yes, these shafts and nuts are compatible with many standard 3mm and 4mm components, making them handy for hybrid builds using parts from different suppliers.
Absolutely. The variety of lengths and the quantity of fasteners make this pack good for group projects and iterative prototyping activities.
