EMacionga Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Gents, Anyone know, what exactly the track links on MKIV's were made of? I have only seen photos, and the tracks in photos of surviving vehicles in museums seem to be painted. In actual use I suppose they would have not worried about rust as long as they were functional.

Adrian Barrell Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Most single dry pin track is cast steel with a high manganese content. This gives the link a work hardening property, very useful for the wearing surfaces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
