Definitions

  1. 1.
    torsion
    • Velkou výhodou pásů spojených ocelovými čepy bez pouzdra je jednodušší oprava. Ve srovnání s pružnějšími pásy tanku Sherman byla výhodou i tuhost v krutu ocelových pásů s ocelovými čepy, která se projevovala i delší životností.

      The big advantage of death track is that it is easier to repair. Torsional stiffness of the cast steel track with steel track pins was also a plus when it came to track retention in comparison to more resilient rubber bushed tracks that were often used by the Sherman tank.
