Evergreen 212 Polystyrene Rod 2 mm x 350 mm, 6 Pieces

This Evergreen 212 polystyrene rod set is a staple for model builders who need precise, uniform round stock. The 2 mm diameter and 350 mm length provide ample material for structural details, piping, and scratch-built components. Unlike random scraps or brittle alternatives, these rods are extruded from consistent polystyrene, so every piece in the pack behaves the same when cut, glued, or painted.

Highlights

• Round polystyrene rods, 2 mm diameter
• 350 mm length per rod
• Pack of 6 rods
• Smooth surface, easy to cut, sand, and drill
• Compatible with standard plastic cements and paints

In daily use

Modelers rely on these rods for everything from antenna masts and handrails to structural framing in architectural models and dioramas. The rigid material holds its shape, yet cuts cleanly with a hobby knife or razor saw. Because the rods are solid polystyrene, they bond quickly with solvent cements and accept acrylic or enamel paints without primer. The natural white color is neutral, making it easy to see cut lines and surface details before finishing.
