OO Gauge SET E6-7 - product code 4WH0900607
This set E6-7 includes parts to construct One (1) Single Track Cantilever I-Beam type structure.
One Mast Base is included in the kit, with two magnets to fit into the base and OHLE structure. The use of magnets allows the OHLE structures to be easily removed and re-fitted on your layout.
A length of 0.5mm wire is included that may be slotted through the mast end and into the registration arm (once fitted) - the registration arm is included.
All parts are supplied unpainted on sprues. Preparation and assembly with glue is required. Before painting it is recommended to apply a light coat of primer. Instructions are available on-line or paper copy by special request only at the time of ordering. Glue and paint is not included.
Regarding the spacing of OHLE masts, the real railway mast spacing can be vary between about 20metres and 70metres which equates to 260 to 920mm in OO Gauge. In general mast spacing is likely to be closer together at junctions and on sharper curves.
The Peco wires are available in the following lengths 200mm, 260mm, 340mm, 380mm and 500mm, so if you are fitting wires then it makes sense to space your masts to suit the Peco wire lengths. [wires are not included in this kit]
OHLE Structure kit (SET E6-7) dimensions:-
• Overall height above baseboard (including bases) - 106mm
• Overall length of structure (across the tracks) - 75mm
• Overall width of structure - 14mm
• Nominal height of contact wire (if fitted to Magnetic Registration Arm) - 79mm above baseboard [wires not included]
