Tamiya 70263 8mm Square Beam Pack 3pcs  [70263]

Modular 8mm Square Plastic Beams

The Tamiya 70263 8mm plastic beams are a practical choice for modellers crafting frames or bespoke components. Their square tube form lends itself to neat, modular builds and straightforward integration with other beam parts.

Construction and Insert Options

These beams are made from polystyrene, allowing easy trimming and finishing while retaining adequate strength for model applications. The inner bore accepts 3mm and 5mm square beams so you can nest components for stronger assemblies. The square profile also prevents twisting of inserted parts to maintain alignment.

Assembly Notes and Finishing

Score and snap or use a thin-blade saw for clean cuts, then bond with Tamiya plastic cement. They take paint well, so you can match them to your build using Tamiya paints. Use them alongside other Tamiya beams for extended frameworks and customised supports.
