MK1 Design MS-35016 German Water Tight Door Set 1/350 – Photo-etched Watertight Doors Set for German Vessels

MK1 Design MS-35016 German Water Tight Door Set 1/350 is a specialized photo-etched parts set designed for German ship models in 1/350 scale. This precisely crafted set enables the creation of very realistic and detailed watertight doors, which were a characteristic construction feature of Kriegsmarine vessels during World War II. These doors were a key component for the watertight bulkhead division, increasing the chances of survival of the vessel in case of battle damage.

The set includes high-quality photo-etched plates that allow the recreation of even the smallest details, such as hinges, handles, and locks. Thanks to the use of thin stainless steel, all elements maintain perfect scale fidelity while ensuring durability and ease of handling. MK1 Design made sure every part was accurately represented according to historical sources, making the final result noticeably more realistic.
