Overview
The Du-Bro Connections Kit Bundle (AK132) brings together three of Du-Bro's most useful hardware assortment boxes – the Hinge/Horn Assortment Kit (AK120), the Connector Assortment Kit (AK121) and the Attach Assortment Kit (AK122) – for a total of 271 pieces of genuine Du-Bro RC hardware. Between them, the three boxes cover control surface hinging, control horns, pushrod linkages, ball links, blind nuts, threaded inserts and set screws: the hardware used on almost every RC airplane build and repair.
Each kit comes in its own clear, compartmented storage case with a printed label that lists every part, its quantity and its individual Du-Bro SKU number, so you can see what is inside at a glance and reorder exactly the part you run low on. It is an ideal starter set for a new builder's workbench and a convenient restock for experienced modelers who want common linkage and mounting hardware organized and on hand.
