Not sure if anyone noticed this but winter tracks are now avialable at Mato with a bunch of other metal parts as well.

RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
that's only for Pz III. Would be nice if someone put out duckbill extenders for VVSS tracks....they were`used much more than Winter or Ostkletten.[:-]

RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
did the price say US$99?

RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
id get them if my panzer 3 still worked... rear axle has bent and it just throws the tracks immediately...
|
RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
By the picture of the extra links ; they seem to have a Right & Left hand ; compare to the one side only of the asiatam ones .....

RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
ostketten were outside extensions only. To have the extenders on both sides would require altering the whole suspension several inches outwards. Some Shermans were set up
to try this and it was wasteful both on time and cost. |

Yeah, those are only metal tracks for the Sherman. The Allies really did not have winter tracks. They just added Duck bill track end extenders and grousers to the original tracks for snow and ice , and mud.

Don't forget the Impact Winterketten that are very nice and a little bit cheaper from Mitosal.

The 'the-rc-dynasty' item ... are those ASIATAM tracks? I didn't know that anyone made winterkitten tracks other than IMPACT.
Do both make the Osketten versions too? - Jeff |
RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
RC Dynasty is Mato ebay's outlet. Mato have been spending a lot of time dabbling in all metal, so I believe these are the same track listed on the Mato site.

photo from a real panzer.
I think Mato's version is the OstKetten, not Winterketten Mato tracks look nice! |
RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
The Mato's look to be winterketten tracks to me.

RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
What's the difference?

RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
These are winterketten:

RE: Metal Winter tracks at Mato
RCTankWars will have these in stock and they are SWEET, these are by far the best metal tracks that Mato has made. I normally do not toot my own horn but I had a small part in getting these made and I am glad for it. They are light like Impact / Mitosal, but strong and good detail too. Closed pin on one side, and that side also has the roughed up metal right under the pin head to keep it in. I have one sample set in stock and I going to get some Photos to post on the Website's Product page and get a comparison shot of my Stug III before and after I install these. Check back with you later... Oh Great pics Jeff The Blitz |
