Tidy plastic trimming with Tamiya 69940

The Tamiya 69940 Modeler's Side Cutter Alpha in fluorescent green is aimed at modellers who want controlled, accurate cuts when preparing kit components. Its compact profile suits detailed work around parts and sprues.

Specifically for plastic trimming tasks

Forged carbon steel blades give a fine slicing edge designed for plastic model parts and Mini 4WD components. The jaw carries the marking "FOR PLASTIC" to confirm the recommended material.

Secure handling and bright finish

Comfortable elastomer grips reduce slippage and help with precision trimming. The fluorescent green colour makes the tool quick to find and bears Tamiya's twin star branding.

Will this cutter handle stiff ABS parts?

It will cut standard ABS used in model kits but may require firmer pressure. For very thick ABS, consider gradual cuts to avoid stressing the plastic.

How do I avoid blade rust over time?

Dry the blades after use and apply a tiny amount of light oil if you expect long storage periods. Store away from moisture to slow corrosion.

Is this cutter suitable for precision scale work?

Yes, its slim nose and sharp jaws are useful for delicate trimming and removing small flash or sprue remnants around fine details.
