Description
You are bidding on a SUPERB used example of a WW2 German Wehrmacht Kettenglied (Track Pad), as ONLY used on the Sd.Kfz. 251 and Sd.Kfz. 11 Half Tracks and their variants!
Similar in design to the 1-tonne and 5 tonne variants, the Sd.Kfz. 251 and Sd.Kfz. 11 track links were 280mm wide, in order to compensate for the additional weight of troops, guns, equipment and armour plating. They went through 4 style changes as the war progresses.
Made of solid rubber, this half-track rubber pad is in AMAZING used condition! A spare that originated from my Sd.Kfz. 251/9 D restoration project, there is some slight wear and pitting, but is VERY solid otherwise (probably usable). Still retains all the manufacture info and stamps, with a “W402” (indicating the type). I have shown the exact track type and pad in the last photos. Would make a PERFECT item for any collection, display, or restoration project!
*** Note that as I have multiple quantities, the item you receive may look slightly different than the exact example shown in the listing photos. ***
