Brass Tubes & Metal Pipes for Scale Modelling – Precision Detailing Materials
Brass tubes, rods, and metal pipes are essential materials for scale modellers and scratch-builders who want to add realistic detail, strengthen model components, or create custom parts with precision. Available in a range of diameters and lengths, brass tubes are ideal for gun barrels, exhaust pipes, mechanical detail, and structural reinforcement across scale models, Warhammer conversions, and diorama work.
Loaded Dice stocks brass tubes and modelling metal in our Barry, South Wales shop and online at loadeddice.uk. These materials are a favourite among scale modellers and hobbyists who want to drill out gun barrels, scratch-build mechanical components, or reinforce fragile resin and metal joins.
Frequently Asked Question
Brass tubes are used for drilling out gun barrels, creating exhaust pipes, detailing mechanical components, scratch-building custom parts, and reinforcing fragile resin or metal miniature joins with internal rod pins.
Yes — brass tubes and rods are popular among Warhammer hobbyists for drilling out gun barrels on vehicles and infantry, creating conversion parts, and pinning fragile resin models for stronger joins.
The correct diameter depends on the model. Infantry weapons typically require 1mm to 1.5mm, while vehicle weapons range from 2mm to 4mm. Having a small selection of sizes covers most applications.
A pin vice or hand drill with the appropriate bit, small flush cutters or a razor saw to cut tubes cleanly, and a needle file to smooth cut edges are the main tools required.
Yes — brass tubes can be primed and painted like any other model component. Light sanding before priming improves paint adhesion on smooth metal surfaces.
