Description

Tamiya 69949 Modeler's Side Cutter Alpha modelling nippers (mint green)

Tamiya 69949 is a modelling side cutter from the Modeler's Side Cutter Alpha line, in a special version with mint green grip covers. It is a basic workshop tool used to cut parts from plastic sprues cleanly and in a controlled way.

The blades are made of hardened high-carbon tool steel, ensuring a sharp, durable cutting edge. The side of the jaw carries a "FOR PLASTIC" marking, indicating that the tool is intended for cutting plastics. The grips are covered with a soft elastomer bearing the Tamiya logo, improving grip and comfort.

  • Model: Tamiya 69949 Modeler's Side Cutter Alpha (mint green version)
  • Type: modelling side cutter for plastics
  • Blade material: hardened high-carbon tool steel
  • Grips: soft elastomer (mint green), with Tamiya logo
  • Manufacturer: Tamiya

Features and use

The nippers are intended for cutting parts from sprues and for initial trimming of gate marks before further work with a file or sandpaper. For a smooth edge it is worth cutting the part with a small margin and removing the remaining gate separately.

The tool is intended for plastics only. Cutting wire, metal parts or photo-etched parts with it may damage the blades, so separate tools should be used for such materials.

Applications

The nippers are suited to building plastic model kits – aircraft, armour, ships and car models – as well as figures and radio-controlled models. They are one of the basic tools useful to beginners and experienced modellers alike.
