Expo 1.50mm (60 thou) White

The Expo 1.50mm (60 thou) White Sheet is a heavy-duty styrene plastic sheet pack used for scratch-building, structural modelling, and major kit conversions in scale modelling projects.

This pack contains 3 sheets, each measuring 228 × 330mm, made from rigid white polystyrene suitable for cutting, shaping, and bonding with standard plastic model cement.

About the material

At 1.50mm thickness, this is a strong, rigid styrene sheet designed for substantial structural work where durability and stability are essential. Despite its thickness, it can still be worked with standard modelling tools such as saws, knives, files, and sanding tools.

It is commonly used in armour, aircraft, and diorama modelling for building core structures and load-bearing components.

Key features

✔ 1.50mm (60 thou) styrene sheet thickness
✔ White plastic for easy marking and visibility
✔ Pack contains 3 sheets
✔ Sheet size: 228 × 330mm each
✔ High-strength, rigid construction material
✔ Compatible with standard plastic model cement
✔ Can be cut, drilled, shaped, and sanded

Typical uses in modelling

This thickness is especially suited for:

• heavy scratch-built structures and frameworks

• armour hulls, chassis, and thick structural plating

• aircraft bulkheads and internal supports

• diorama buildings, walls, and terrain bases

• large conversions and major kit modifications

• reinforcement of load-bearing model sections

Skill level

Intermediate to Advanced

Best suited for:

• intermediate modellers working on structural projects

• advanced builders doing full scratch builds or conversions

• diorama makers requiring strong base materials

Beginners may use it for simple structural elements with care and proper tools.

Application tips

• Use a razor saw or multiple scoring passes for clean cuts

• Avoid forcing deep cuts in a single pass

• Dry fit components before gluing

• Use liquid cement for strong, seamless joints

• Sand edges for precise alignment

• Combine with thinner sheets for layered detailing effects

Ideal for

• scratch-build modellers

• armour and aircraft conversion specialists

• diorama builders

• structural modelling projects

• large-scale kit modifications

Summary

The Expo 1.50mm White Styrene Sheet pack provides very strong, rigid plastic sheet material designed for heavy structural modelling work, making it ideal for scratch-building, conversions, and diorama construction where maximum durability and stability are required.
