Dynamic Movement: Connectors rub together smoothly and fold naturally around curves without disrupting movement.
Retains Standard Couplings: These connectors are purely cosmetic detailing parts and do not replace your existing tension locks or couplings.
Easy Attachment: We leave the attachment method to your preference! Modellers frequently use Blu-Tack (recommended for non-permanent fitting), PVA glue, Super Glue, or thin double-sided tape.
