3 Ton Half Track Wheels

[Ketten09]

I was wondering if anyone could answer a question for me.

I have in my collection some single wheels with the spacer still attached. The spacer is held on with 12 rivets, my question is did the Germans reduce the number of rivets to 6 on late war wheels. I have seen spacers for sale with only 6 rivets stating they are WWII, or are they post war OT810.

I have tried a Google search and been through all my reference books, but can find no pictures of the 6 rivet wheels.

Thanks in advance for any help.

If I understand right 6 rivets have spacer for sdkfz 11 and 12 sdkfz 251.

Hi nemps

Thanks for the reply, I did not know that. Something new I have learnt today.
