Tiranti SC Series professional modelling tools. Double-ended tools for precision sculpting and modelling. Price per unit.
The Tiranti SC Series modelling tools are professional sculpting tools made to the quality standards that characterise this Italian brand, a reference in the world of modelling. With double-ended heads in different geometries, each SC series tool addresses specific working needs: from defining fine details to smoothing surfaces or creating textures in clay, wax, epoxy putty and other plastic materials.

What it is used for
SC Series tools are designed for precision sculpting and modelling work. They are the most versatile hand tool in the workshop of a sculptor, prosthetist, special effects makeup artist or figure modeller. They can be used on any malleable material before curing or hardening.
- Modelling and sculpting in water clay, polymer clay and oven-bake clay
- Work on sculptor's wax and jewellery waxes
- Detailing and refining of two-component epoxy putties
- Creating textures and surfaces in modelling pastes
- Defining wrinkles, pores and anatomical details in prosthetics and character work
- Correction and finishing of parts in scale models and model making
- Sculpting miniatures for role-playing games, wargames and collecting
- Restoration and artistic reproduction work
How to use it
- Select the SC tool with the tip geometry suited to the operation you are going to perform (flat for smoothing, pointed for fine details, rounded for concave areas).
- If working with clay or wax, make sure the material is at working temperature: slightly softened but without excess surface moisture.
- Apply the tool with controlled pressure and fluid movements. For fine details, work in short strokes with the tip; for smoothing surfaces, use the flat body of the head.
- Clean the tip of the tool frequently to prevent accumulated material from contaminating the work area or reducing detail definition.
- When finished, clean the tool thoroughly with a dry or slightly damp cloth depending on the material used, and store it protected to preserve the geometry of the tips.
Usage tips
Choose the tip based on the material and scale
The Tiranti SC Series includes different head geometries designed for different operations. For work on miniatures or small-scale pieces, the finer tips allow you to add details that would be impossible to achieve with generic tools. On larger pieces, the wider heads speed up smoothing and plane definition work. Combine the SC tools with the SB Series tools and the SK Series tools to cover the full range of operations in a single project.
Keep the tips clean during work
Material that builds up on the tip of the tool acts as an unwanted separator that reduces the precision of your stroke. Clean frequently by wiping the tip on a clean cloth or, if working with water clay, on a slightly damp sponge. With two-component epoxy putties, clean the tool before the material begins to gel, as once cured it is very difficult to remove without damaging the geometry.
Combine tools for greater efficiency
Modelling tools work best when combined with the rest of the tool family. For laminating projects and subsequent finishing, the Special Rollers for Resin Laminates and the Metal Deaerating Rollers complement the modelling phase. For dispensing and mixing putties or two-component materials before application, the Casting Ladle is a common tool in the same workflow.
Frequently asked questions
What type of clay are these tools suitable for?
The Tiranti SC Series tools are compatible with virtually any malleable modelling material: water clay, polymer clay, oven-bake clay, sculptor's wax, two-component epoxy putty and modelling pastes in general. The geometry of their tips is optimised for precision work regardless of the material.
How many tools does each unit include?
Are they suitable for miniature and small-scale figure modelling?
Yes. The SC Series includes fine-tip geometries that are especially useful for working details at a reduced scale. They are a common tool among miniature sculptors for wargames, collectible figures and model making in general, where precision of stroke and tip fineness are decisive.
Can they be used on two-component epoxy putties?
Yes, and it is one of their most common applications in special effects and model making workshops. The key is to work within the working window of the material, before it begins to gel. Once the putty starts to harden, the tool loses effectiveness and can be damaged if forced. Clean the tip before each pass to maintain precision.
How are these tools cleaned and maintained?
For water clay or wax, simply clean the tip with a dry or slightly damp cloth at the end of the session. For epoxy putties, clean before curing with a cloth soaked in the appropriate solvent (consult the data sheet for the material you are using). Store the tools protected, preferably in a case or rolled in a cloth, to prevent the tips from deforming through contact with other tools.
What is the difference between the SC, SB, SK and BM series from Tiranti?
Each Tiranti series corresponds to a different set of tip geometries and sizes, oriented towards different types of work. The SC Series, the SB Series, the SK Series and the BM Series complement each other. To find out which series or number best suits your project, you can contact the Feroca technical team at [email protected].
Can I use these tools for character work and special effects?
Yes. Modelling tools are a basic tool in the workflow of special effects makeup artists and prosthetists. They are used to sculpt the positive of the prosthesis, define skin textures, wrinkles and pores, and refine details before obtaining the silicone mould. They are compatible with the sculpting materials commonly used in this field.
Where can I get technical advice on which tool to choose?
The Feroca technical team is available by phone at 914 481 271, by email at [email protected] or through Feroca's social media channels. Describe your project and they will advise you on which number and series best suits your needs.
