Tamiya 70252 3mm Hex Shaft Set Overview and Uses

The Tamiya 70252 3mm Hex Shaft Set is aimed at modellers and learners who need interchangeable shaft lengths to adapt construction kits or gearbox arrangements. It provides straightforward options for tailoring small mechanical systems.

Shaft Lengths and Typical Applications

This set includes shafts in 38mm, 50mm, 60mm and 72mm lengths to suit different model layouts. Shorter shafts help when space is constrained around wheels or compact gear trains, while the longer lengths bridge wider assemblies. They are compatible with common parts such as universal joints and shaft drive units, expanding your mounting choices.

Compatibility with Tamiya Parts

These shafts work with many standard Tamiya components used in educational and hobby models. If your project requires greater length, combine this set with Tamiya Item 70105 which provides 100mm and 150mm shafts.

Yes, they are suitable for many scale model gearboxes that accept a 3mm hex shaft, offering tidy solutions for compact installations.
Measure the coupling bore and confirm the 3mm hex profile matches your joints; trial fit before final assembly to ensure smooth operation.
They are well suited to classroom builds and workshops where multiple shaft lengths help demonstrate driveline configurations and mechanical principles.
Consider clearance, joint angle and support bearings when choosing shaft lengths to avoid binding and unwanted vibration.
