Flexible Beam Material for Modellers

Hobbyists seeking malleable components will appreciate the Tamiya 70159 3mm Clear Soft Plastic Beams. These beams combine resin and synthetic rubber to deliver flexibility, allowing bends up to 180 degrees so you can form brackets, trims, and curved parts that rigid stock cannot achieve.

Creative and Structural Uses

They suit detailing work, bespoke supports, and applications where a subtle, clear finish is preferred. The beams are easy to shape, fasten, and integrate with existing parts while keeping added elements visually unobtrusive.

Use adhesives specified for flexible plastics or cyanoacrylate after light sanding; for mechanical strength, combine glue with small fasteners where possible.
Yes, apply a suitable plastic primer first and then use acrylic or enamel model paints; always test on a scrap before finishing the main piece.
Regular inspection for stress or abrasion is all that is required; avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals and extreme temperatures to preserve flexibility.
Yes, they cut cleanly with a sharp hobby knife or fine saw. Clamp the strip when cutting and file edges smooth for a tidy finish.
