Description

Tracks instead of wheels

Tracked vehicles such as bulldozers, diggers or tanks need chain links, and plenty of them. This pack supplies 54 in black, all of the same kind. There are no instructions, as it is pure top-up stock for models that want a longer or replacement track. Anyone who has built a Technic vehicle with tracked drive knows how quickly the links you own run short, particularly when you want a longer, stable chain.

One element, many uses

With a single element type the pack could hardly be simpler. The links are joined end to end and run around wheels or gears to form a closed belt. Depending on the length, 54 links are enough for one compact vehicle or two smaller tracks. If you prefer to design your own machines, the Technic range gives you plenty of room, because the link is not tied to any particular model, and it can be reused in many designs.

For Technic builders and collectors

The pack is aimed at Technic fans who design their own vehicles and at collectors who want every service pack from the eighties. The black bag is not meant for display; its value lies in use. There is no figure and no finished model. You get material for whatever you invent yourself, without any extras you do not need. That makes it a practical purchase for anyone building tracked machines regularly.

Parts list and ideas on this page

The parts list further down shows the single element with its quantity of 54. If you own the pack, add it to your collection and let the page show what can be built with your other sets. With chain links in particular it is worth checking the list of matches, because with a little combination you may find vehicles you would not think of when looking at such a plain bag.
