PROJ: AK6532 · SHEET 2 / 4

View · Overview

Product overview

With a 2 mm thickness and 5 mm width, AK6532 offers eight substantial strips at 350 mm long. Its broad rectangular face provides a practical basis for decking, walkways, platforms, vehicle floors and scratch-built structural members. The stock can be retained as a continuous length or sectioned into matching beams, planks and supports. Cut parts slightly over length when adjustment is needed, then bring the end to its final fit with a needle file or abrasive stick.

  • This is the widest strip AK offers at a 2 mm thickness
  • AK identifies the polystyrene as both white and opaque
  • Published inch size: .080 thick × .196 wide × 13.78 long

Notes · Q & A

What do the dimensions mean?

The first figures describe the cross-section, followed by the stock length or sheet format. Strip is listed as thickness × width × length, round stock uses outside diameter × length, and sheet uses thickness × 245 × 195 mm. The 0.7 mm wall applies only to products explicitly described as hollow tube.

How should I cut modelling styrene?

Score thin sheet and flat strip against a metal straightedge, then snap it along the cut. For thicker sheet and larger profiles, use repeated knife passes or a fine razor saw rather than forcing one deep cut. Clean the edge afterwards with a fine file or abrasive.

What glue should I use for styrene stock?

Ordinary plastic or solvent cement is the usual choice because it softens the mating surfaces and welds the polystyrene together. Test-fit the pieces first and apply the cement sparingly, especially around fine details or exposed surfaces.

How do I choose a thickness or profile?

Choose according to the shape you need and how you intend to cut or form it. Thin sheet and strip are easier to score, snap and curve by hand, while thicker sections usually need repeated knife passes or a fine saw. Rod, tube, angle, channel and half-round profiles provide ready-made cross-sections for particular details.

Does AK styrene need special preparation before painting?

No special paint system is required; treat it like an ordinary polystyrene kit part. Remove cutting and sanding dust, apply primer where appropriate, and use your usual modelling paints.
