so it needs to be case hardened bar ? wonder how much that would cost.... i agree with using heat on the tracks too its never a good thing. i have been trying to find out what the meterial % is made up from i know it has manganese in there with the steel (track links).
perhaps this is something that we could all get together and try to sort once and for all, after all worn track and pins will effect us all. I know that staman military are producing brand new sherman chevron tracks so surely we could all get together and produce something. i am going to chase up Vickers Armstrongs for any patterns they may have again.

Jon keep us posted on any results you get for material to use as pins.
