Scale-Accurate Die-Cast T81 Tracks for 1/16 Pershing

The Tamiya 84217 die-cast tracks are crafted to mirror the T81 links used on early M26 Pershings, making them a precise upgrade for 1/16 RC Pershing models. These metal links enhance the model's authenticity and include die-cast drive sprockets to replace weaker kit parts for a more durable drive interface.

A sandblasted surface on each link provides a convincing scale texture that improves display realism. This set is compatible with Tamiya Item 56016 U.S. Medium Tank M26 Pershing (T26E3) and is a solid choice for enthusiasts seeking historically accurate finishes and stronger components.

  • Material: Die-cast metal
  • Includes: 2 metal tracks and 4 metal drive sprockets
  • Compatibility: Tamiya Item 56016 U.S. Medium Tank M26 Pershing (T26E3)

How difficult is the installation for someone new to tracks?

Basic model-building experience is useful but not essential; the job is straightforward with simple hand tools and patience to align the links and sprockets correctly.

Will metal tracks affect battery or motor life?

The added weight can slightly increase motor load and battery draw; monitor temperatures and consider gearing or power adjustments if you notice strain.

Are these tracks period correct for early Pershing variants?

Yes, the links follow the T81 pattern used on early M26 Pershings, making them a good choice for historically minded builds.
