Detailed Finishing with Tamiya 12675 Black Cable

For modellers aiming for authentic engine bays and neat cable runs, the Tamiya 12675 Black Cable delivers a convincing solution. The product combines a flexible vinyl sheath with an inner wire core to hold shapes cleanly.

Controlled Flexibility for Realistic Runs

The Tamiya 12675 Black Cable comes in a 2 m length and has a 0.5mm outer diameter, allowing you to form realistic bends and maintain them on completion. Compared with hollow tubing, the wire core offers superior shape retention for tight or complex routes.

Practical Advice for Fitting and Finish

Use a fine drill to make entry points and trial the routing before committing to glue. Small spots of plastic-safe adhesive or superglue will secure the cable without marring the appearance if applied sparingly.

Specifications

  • Material: Vinyl casing with wire core
  • Length: 2 m
  • Outer Diameter: 0.5mm
Yes. The 0.5mm diameter suits fine-scale detailing in those scales, providing a subtle but noticeable upgrade to factory parts.
Mask off surrounding areas and use a minimal amount of adhesive. Consider using poster tack for temporary holds while you check alignment before final bonding.
The internal wire is for shaping and is not intended as an electrical conductor. Soldering is not recommended as it may damage the vinyl jacket and change the cable profile.
