Metal barrel replacement details are a great way for enhancing your model kit.

They are precisely machined according to the dimensions of their real life counterparts. Usually they are turned from aluminum or brass. They save time because thre is no need for sanding and cleaning the mould lines and drilling out the barrels. They sometimes require assembly from parts - a CA glue is needed to fix the elements together. They usually require only replacing the plastic part with metal one. Glue them using CA glue. Some models would require cutting off the parts we are replacing.

Aber is a Polish manufacturer of turned metal and photoetched brass details for model kits.

Since their founding, Aber has gained a reputation of one of the best and most accurate brands on the modelling market, when it comes to detail-up sets. Their catalogue covers detail sets for virtually any model scale and type. Sets are very well researched and simple ones containing grilles, stowage boxes or fenders can be found as well as very complex sets, with even minute details faithfully recreated. Parts can be joined together by soldering or using a CA-type glue. Aber detail sets are recommended mostly for experienced modellers as their use often involves larger modifications of the kit’s plastic parts.
