Gday mate
I have two sizes.
The first is about 3mm x 1mm and the larger ones are 4.75 x 1.5 mm.
Both are good for 40K and fantasy size models.
I have used the smaller ones on my son's Tau Crisis Suit weapons and they
work fine.
Also on Ork Buggy wepaons and have even used them to hold the Necron Tomb
Spyder front claws underneath my Land Speeders.
( I have a "search and rescue" Chapter/Company. The Landspeeders are used to
pick up injured/dead marines and/or vehicles.)
I havnt used the larger ones for anything other than Platis Dragon Wings on
a Hive Tyrant.
They stick very well but still slide as the wing is so large. I need to put
a plug/pin in to hold it in position.
I bought mine from ebay although after the first purchase deal directly with
the bloke now.
To cut a long story short. The ones that are around 3mm x 1mm are suitable
for Plastic miniatures and weapons. I havnt used them on metal arms and
wouldnt like to try.
The 4.75 x 1.5 mm are even stronger although would be difficult to use on
the smaller plastics.
I will be using the smaller ones for my plastic Terminator arms.
Hope that waffle helped mate
