Features
Versatile Applications for Model Making
The Plastruct VHH-350 Hemispherical Head, also known as a hemispherical dome, is designed to serve a range of practical purposes in model construction. Its most common use is for capping the ends of both vertical and horizontal storage tanks. These tanks are often found in oil processing plants, water treatment facilities, or those used for the storage of LP gas, food, or grain. This adaptability makes the product a vital component in architectural modeling and industrial diorama building.
Ideal for Educational and Creative Projects
Beyond industrial and architectural uses, these hemispherical domes are perfect for educational and crafting projects. Students and hobbyists can use them to demonstrate engineering principles or for creating visually appealing models. In school settings, the domes are often featured in science exhibitions, craft competitions, or technology education projects, thanks to their simple structure and easy handling.
Simple Spherical Construction and Decorative Uses
A unique feature of the VHH-350 dome is that two pieces can be glued together to form a perfect plastic sphere. This straightforward assembly process enables a wide array of creative applications, from school science demonstrations to innovative home décor. The resulting plastic spheres can be painted, decorated, or modified as needed, making them suitable for various artistic or practical purposes.
Useful for Puppetry and Robotics
The hemispherical form of the VHH-350 also lends itself well to creative uses such as being used as "eyes" for puppets or robots. Its smooth surface and symmetrical shape make it ideal for adding expressive features to artistic models or mechanical projects. Puppet makers and robotics enthusiasts value the precision and uniformity provided by these components.
Precision Material and Manufacturing Quality
Plastruct ensures that each VHH-350 hemispherical dome is precision injection molded using high-quality materials such as Acrylic, ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), or Butyrate plastic. This manufacturing technique guarantees consistent quality, high durability, and a professional finish. The standard 3-1/2 inch size (for TB-350) means it is widely compatible across many scales and project requirements, adding to its versatility for both amateur and professional model makers.
