Hasegawa Cutting Template A Parallel Width Ruler TP05

Precision Parallel Width Cutting Template

The Hasegawa Cutting Template A (Straight Parallel Width Ruler) is a specialised modelling tool designed to help create accurate, consistent strips from masking materials, decals, adhesive sheets and other modelling media. Manufactured from ultra-thin, high-hardness stainless steel, it provides a durable and precise guide for hobby knives and cutting tools.

This template has been developed specifically for cutting parallel strips of varying widths. It supports an extensive range of dimensions, from extremely fine 0.5mm strips through to much wider sections, making it suitable for everything from fine lining details to larger masking applications. The precision-machined slots help ensure uniform results, reducing waste and improving accuracy when preparing custom masks or trim details.

The durable stainless steel construction resists wear and deformation, ensuring the template remains accurate even after frequent use. Its thin profile allows cutting blades to follow the guide closely, helping achieve clean edges and precise dimensions. While originally intended for use with Hasegawa’s Finish Series materials, the template is equally useful for a wide variety of modelling tasks.

In addition to cutting masking materials and adhesive sheets, the template can also be used as a measuring guide and straight ruler for general modelling work. It is suitable for aircraft, armour, automotive, railway, naval and science-fiction modelling projects. Whether producing canopy masks, racing stripes, panel line guides or decorative trim, this tool offers a practical solution for achieving professional-looking results.
