--Upgrade parts for N gauge model railroad [SP hood].
[Features]
--If it is a Japanese model, it can be installed on any N gauge vehicle regardless of manufacturer or model.
――Supports B train shorty.
--If the product has a hood, it can be easily installed by simply covering it.
――Since it follows the car body by catching on the hood attached to the product and the force of the spring, no adhesive or tape is required.
――There are 4 sizes of S, M, L and LL (each sold separately) to match the ready-made hood.
* Please refer to [Examples of mountable products] for examples of compatible products.
--Colors are available in gray, black and brown (each sold separately).
--The material is colored stainless steel. It has a low gloss and a realistic appearance.
* Vinyl and cloth like the hood of the actual car are not included.
* Slight spring-through gaps will open depending on the curve.
-Not only Arnold couplers, but also each company's own couplers are supported.
-Supports up, down, left, right, and twisting directions. S-shaped curves, curves with small radii, and curves with cants can also be passed.
[How to use]
(1) Lightly stretch and loosen the SP hood to remove the overlap between the lines. At that time, please note that it will be deformed if you pull it too strongly.
(2) Set the SP hood so that it matches the distance between the connecting surfaces of the vehicle to be used. You can choose the number of turns to cut, but please refer to the attached table for a guide.
(3) Place the first car on the railroad track and cover it all the way to the hood frame attached to the car. If the vehicle does not have a hood, please prepare the hood parts sold by each company separately. If the hood parts have protrusions, cutting them will make it easier to attach the SP hood.
(4) Place the connection partner on the track and connect it to the first car so that the SP hood covers the hood frame.
(5) Connect the remaining vehicles in the same procedure.
* As much as possible, it can be attached to the hoods of various manufacturers, so it may be loosely attached and easily fall off when connected, or it may shift during driving. If you are concerned, attach a small piece of double-sided tape to the top surface of the hood to be attached and fix it easily. (There is no functional problem even without double-sided tape.)
* Because it is made of stainless steel, it may cause a short circuit if it falls on an energized track.
[Remarks]
――The cut guideline is shown in the attached table. Please note that if you cut too much, a gap may open in a straight line or the curve may come off. Even with the same manufacturer, the distance between connecting surfaces is slightly different for each vehicle. We recommend that you cut it little by little according to the vehicle you are using.
