Description

Description

JP Leading Edge, 3/8 x 36in is a genuine JP balsa wood from J Perkins. Its part number is 5520269. Essential Balsa leading edge supplied in 36-inch lengths for creating smooth, air-foil accurate shapes on wings and stabilisers.

JP Balsa Leading Edge

  • Size: Various
  • Length: 36in
  • Material: Balsa

Selected, straight-grained balsa that cuts, sands and glues easily. Ideal for building and repairing model aircraft, from ribs, formers and sheeting to trailing edges and fillets. Also popular for architectural models, dioramas and school projects.

Key features

  • Precision-Profiled Aerofoil Section: Specifically shaped as a "leading edge," this balsa strip provides the essential rounded geometry required to create air-foil accurate shapes on wings and stabilisers with minimal sanding.
  • Standardised 36-Inch Lengths: Supplied in generous 36-inch (approx. 915mm) lengths, offering a continuous, seamless leading edge for a wide range of model aircraft wingspans and structural frames.
  • Superior Weight-to-Strength Ratio: Manufactured from high-quality balsa, this material offers the classic lightweight properties necessary for flight efficiency while maintaining enough rigidity to protect the wing's front edge.
  • Rapid Workshop Fabrication: The soft, uniform grain of the balsa ensures it can be easily trimmed with a scalpel and sanded to a perfectly smooth, professional finish for covering with tissue or film.
  • Versatile Sizing Options: Available in various profile dimensions to accommodate everything from delicate rubber-powered models to more substantial radio-controlled gliders and powered aircraft.
