Clean sprue removal with Tamiya 74035

The Tamiya 74035 Sharp Pointed Side Cutter is ideal for model makers who need accurate removal of plastic parts from sprues. It delivers precise snips that minimise cleanup and protect delicate pieces.

High-grade alloy and fine finishing

Constructed from high-grade chrome-vanadium alloy, these cutters offer robust durability and consistent sharpness. Each blade is hand finished to meet demanding precision requirements for plastic parts.

Sized for control and comfort

At a length of 4-1/2 inches (11.4 cm), the cutter balances reach with fine control. The coated handles improve grip comfort and reduce hand strain during prolonged modelling sessions.

Is the cutter suitable for all plastic kits?

Yes. The cutter performs well on most injection-moulded plastic parts and sprues commonly found in scale kits. Use careful technique on very thin or fragile pieces.

Can I sharpen the blades myself?

Light stropping can help maintain the edge, but avoid aggressive sharpening that alters the blade profile. Proper use and avoiding hard materials will extend blade life.

What should I do after cutting to finish the part?

After cutting, remove any small nubs with a fine hobby knife, file or sanding stick for a smooth join and minimal visible seam.

How do I keep the pivot action smooth?

Occasionally apply a drop of light oil to the joint and move the handles to distribute it. Wipe off excess oil to avoid attracting dust.
