K&S Copper Square Tube, 1/8 x 12in (2 pcs)

Description

K&S Copper Square Tube 1/8 x 12in – a genuine K&S modelling material (product code KNS5090).

Copper Square Tubes are precision-extruded hollow profile materials designed to provide clean geometric lines, excellent thermal performance, and authentic metallic detail for architectural scale models, engineering prototypes, and custom craft projects. Featuring a crisp four-sided profile, these square tubes offer architects, model makers, and designers a versatile metal component for creating structural frameworks, flush-fitting sleeves, and decorative architectural trims.

Manufactured from high-purity copper alloy, this material combines exceptional workability with long-lasting corrosion resistance. The flat outer faces simplify joint alignment and prevent unwanted rotation when fitted into corresponding assemblies, making it ideal for column supports, window mullions, and internal structural bracing. The tubing can be cut easily using a fine-tooth jeweller’s saw or tube cutter, soft-soldered for high-strength metal joins, and polished to a bright lustre or treated with chemical patinas for aged metal effects.

Available in a broad selection of square dimensions, wall thicknesses, and pack configurations across the product family, these copper square tubes deliver a practical, professional-grade solution for outfitting architectural models, mechanical assemblies, and detailed scale dioramas.
