Description
Evergreen [5-252] 14 Square Tube .125 (1:8), part number EVG5-252, is a pack of 15 square polystyrene tubes for scale modelling and scratch-building projects. Each tube has a 3.2mm (.125in) square profile and is supplied in a 350mm (14in) length, making the pack suitable for creating consistent sections across a model.
The square profile has crisp external corners and consistent wall thickness for representing box sections, structural columns, industrial frameworks, architectural details and chassis rails. The hollow construction also allows smaller tube sizes to nest inside larger profiles, supporting sliding mechanisms, telescopic details and reinforced sleeves where the model requires a layered structure.
Features
These white polystyrene tubes can be cut, drilled and mitred for model-making work. Liquid solvent cement can be used to join the material, while the opaque white surface provides a base for acrylic paints and weathering. The hollow centre can also be used for internal wiring or additional thin reinforcement where appropriate.
Evergreen offers this square-tube profile in several sizes, but this pack contains the .125in version. Its standard 14-inch length provides a uniform format for measuring and cutting repeated parts, helping with scale structures, frames and other fabricated details.

Evergreen [5-252] 14 Square Tube .125 (1:8) (15 per pack) Key Features:
- Geometric Precision: These square tubes feature crisp, external corners and consistent wall thicknesses, making them essential for representing box sections, structural columns, and industrial frameworks in scale models.
- Telescoping Capabilities: Specifically engineered with dimensional accuracy that allows smaller sizes to nest inside larger ones, perfect for creating sliding mechanisms, telescopic cranes, or reinforced structural sleeves.
- Standardised 350mm Lengths: Supplied in professional 14-inch sections, providing a uniform format that minimises waste while offering ample length for architectural mullions and chassis rails.
- Comprehensive Size Selection: Available in five primary widths ranging from 3.2mm (.125in) up to 9.5mm (.375in), catering to a wide variety of scales from fine-detail miniatures to large architectural massing.
- Instant Solvent Bonding: Manufactured from high-impact white polystyrene, designed for immediate "cold-welding" with liquid solvent cements for a permanent, high-strength structural bond.
- Superior Workability: The material is exceptionally easy to cut, drill, and mitre. Its hollow core allows for the clean internal routing of wiring for LED lighting or thin structural reinforcements like brass rods.
- Professional Finish: The opaque white surface provides a neutral base that accepts acrylic paints and weathering techniques perfectly, effortlessly simulating steel, concrete, or timber box sections.
