Tracks for Renault FT-17, 1/35 - Friulmodel ATL-073

The Friulmodel metal tracks ATL-073 are a detailing accessory designed to reproduce the running gear of the Renault FT-17 in 1/35 scale. This item is intended for modelers who want to replace the original tracks of a compatible model kit with a link-by-link set.

The set includes 70 metal links as well as wire for creating the assembly axles. Each link is assembled individually to form the vehicle’s two tracks. This design makes it possible to work the overall shape around the wheels and achieve an accurate representation for a French armored project from the First World War or the interwar period.

The Renault FT-17 is an iconic French light tank, recognizable by its configuration featuring a rotating turret and an engine compartment at the rear. At 1/35 scale, this accessory is a dedicated detailing solution for this historical subject.

Assembly and finishing

The links must be prepared and then connected using the wire provided to form the track axles. A fine wire cutter, a file or a light abrasive, and precision tools make it easier to prepare the parts. The finish can be done with paint suitable for metal, and—if desired—weathering effects such as wear, dust, or track-run streaks.
