About product

Takom 1:35 T-142 workable tracks

An accessory for 1:35 military vehicle modelers from Takom. The set holds T-142 tracks for the American M48 and M60 families of tanks in a workable version: the individual links join into a working track that can be bent over the running gear and allowed to sag naturally. The tank model is not included in the package. A workable track is extra work, but the result matches reality in a way a rigid part cannot reach.

The real subject

The T-142 track was a later type of track for American medium and main battle tanks. Its links had replaceable rubber blocks, which extended their life and spared the road surface on road moves. It is precisely the sag of the track between the return rollers that is the detail which instantly gives away on a model whether the builder used a rigid plastic part or a track that behaves like the real thing.

Use

  • clean the flash off the links, or the track will not join up straight
  • work over a tray; small links are easily lost
  • join them in shorter runs and keep trying them on the running gear
  • fit the track to finished and painted running gear; it cannot be done afterward
  • set the sag while the track still bends and fix it in spots
  • bring out the metal surfaces by rubbing them; the contact edges polish up with use
  • keep the rubber blocks darker than the metal parts of the link

The set is meant for more experienced modelers. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
