Hi Rick,

I think from a halftrack

Thanks, do you´ve got any idea which halftrack?
German? Russian? American?
I found it on the easternfront.

[MG-Freak]

nope sorry. Maybe forummember Bullit knows it.

[Admiraal]

It looks allot like the raupenschlepper ost tracks, but there are diferrences.
I cannot find anything thats exactly like it...

Odd lack of guide horns too. Would they have been bolted on through the holes either side?

[Bullitt]

track

Hi
I haven't ID' it yet but my hunch is that it comes from one of those Russian tracked Tractors. in any case not from a German halftrack

is the track smooth or is it possible the guide horn was cut off?

ciao

Hi Rick,

What is the status of the track information?

[steverobertsbbc]

I am wondering if this really is a track link at all. It has no guide horn (unless it was a two-link setup like an Elefant, with a guide-horn link then a flat link) and it has no proper place for the drive sprocket to engage. Usually the sprocket would engage into a rectangular hole or gap at the side of the link, ensuring a good fit over the sprocket tooth no matter which way the track is running. The only available place to drive against here is the rear of the outer hinges and only really in one direction.

strange track

hi

you don't need a sprocket to drive the tracks......remember the T 34 or BT tanks
they used the guidehorns of the tracks to get it in motion. The sprocket didn't have teeth but had connecting bars
