Tamiya Leopard 2A6 tracks for Heng Long Leopard.
Posted: Wed Sep 21, 2016 5:30 pm
The plastic/nylon Tamiya Leopard 2A6 tracks fit the Heng Long Leopard 2A6 like a glove. They are very strong, a tad heavier than the Heng-Long plastic tracks, but extremely light compared to the metal & rubber Mato tracks.
They fit the plastic, as well as the metal sprockets.
They are quite a bit more expensive (€85.-) than the plastic Heng-Long tracks, but are much more sturdy, with thoroughly glued-on rubber pads on dark-grey nylon links. They come in the usual precise and neatly assembled Tamiya quality. And they look Spot-On!
They also fit the Challenger 2 with the metal sprockets like a glove.
Tamiya number : 9805944 replacement track for Leopard 2A6 56020
Seidel, Germany has them in stock.
Thought You people would like to know.
Edit: On closer inspection, I discovered that the thingies that connect the nylon tracks and track-pins, are -actually- metal, and look machined. Very nice! Explains the higher weight compared to Heng Long's plastic Leopard tracks.
