About product

1:35 M551 Sheridan metal tracks Friulmodel

An aftermarket set of workable tracks cast in a metal alloy in 1:35 scale. The package holds individual links and wire for making the pins that join the links into a fully articulated track run. It is not a model but a quality accessory replacing the plastic tracks from the box; the metal version gives the running gear real weight and crisp detail.

What it is for

The set is meant to be swapped for the plastic or segmented tracks on models of the American airborne light tank M551 Sheridan. The vehicle stood out for its light aluminum hull and for its gun/launcher for Shillelagh guided missiles, and it was put into action in Vietnam and later as well. Metal lets the track settle and sag naturally, which you will not reach with stiff plastic without reworking it.

Fitting and painting tips

Clean the casting flash off the links, cut the wire into pins and secure the ends with a drop of super glue, so that the middle stays workable. The metal has to be degreased before painting and given a coat of primer for metals. The shade is then tuned with washes and with dust or mud pigments.

Who it is for

  • Builders of the M551 Sheridan model in 1:35
  • Makers of dioramas where the track is seen from the side
  • More advanced modelers working with metal and super glue

This is an accessory, not a model in its own right. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

Yes, that is exactly what it is for: a workable metal replacement for the plastic tracks of the Sheridan model in 1:35 scale.

Yes. The links joined with wire pins make a fully workable track run, which can be made to sag over the wheels.

The pins are fixed with super glue, and painting goes over a coat of primer for metal, then a covering color and pigments.
