Precision Trimming for Scale Kits

The Tamiya 69945 Modeler's Side Cutter in white is tailored for hobbyists who demand neat part separation. Constructed from carbon tool steel, the cutter offers controlled, accurate cuts on plastic kit components to reduce cleanup time.

Robust Blade Construction

These carbon tool steel blades are manufactured to withstand repeated sprue trimming while maintaining edge integrity. The jaw is stamped with a laser "FOR PLASTIC" warning to discourage use on unsuitable materials.

Comfort and Brand Detail

White elastomer grips deliver a comfortable hold through lengthy modelling sessions and display the Tamiya twin star logo plus TAMIYA CRAFT TOOLS branding for a professional look and feel.

Can this be used to trim thick polythene or nylon?

It is optimised for standard modelling plastics like polystyrene and ABS. Very thick or tough plastics such as some nylons may stress the blades and are not recommended.

How do I keep the cutter cutting smoothly?

Clean off plastic filings after use, avoid cutting metal, and store the tool in a dry drawer. A drop of light oil at the pivot can preserve smooth action.

Is the Tamiya 69945 suitable for fine cockpit or tiny detail parts?

Yes. The precision blades are well suited to delicate trimming tasks when used with careful, small cuts. Follow up with a fine file or sanding stick for a perfect edge.
