Model Railway 3rd Rail Insulators

Model Railway 3rd Rail Insulators 3D print model

Description

3rd Rail Insulators as found in the South of England. These are ideal if you’re planning to add a 3rd rail to your track for electric trains. Caution these are tiny when printing in OO (3.4mm x 2.5mm x 2.5mm) Caution: this is a model of an insulator and not an actual working item.

These have been designed for the OO/HO Peco track. 1:76.2 scale. for O UK print at 175%, 1:43.5 scale. for O International print at 158%, 1:48 scale. For all prints, I would recommend doing some test prints before mass printing to check size is correct, may need to scale up or down slightly to get a better fit as these are very small items.

Recommend printing on a 3D resin printer.

The main resins I use for printing can be found with my affiliated links below. I use AnyCubic Water Washable Resin for most of my items but use AnyCubic ABS Like Resin for anything that needs to be stronger and tougher.

Nice rendition of a 3rd rail insulator. Scales down nicely to 1:48 scale and being used for a 3rd rail on a Subway layout.
