The below is a review by
the staff at American Snowmobiler. www.amsnow.com.
For more than 15 years Mack
Stud of Pelham NH., has been producing traction products
for just about every snowmobile application from racing
to leisurely trail riding. Though not as well known
as some other traction producers, this last year AmSnow
had the opportunity to test two sets of these zinc
plated, heat treated, push through, studs. They have
a 60o
Welded Carbide Tip - similar to other traction products
throughout the industry - but the 1/4 inch
deep tip is stronger than some products we've seen.
We had both the 5/16 x 1.075
inch studs - these give more bite to your 1" lugged
track - and the 5/16 x 1.325 inch, which will work on
your 1.25 inch lugged track. We have always been fans
of square backer plates, which we again used with these
two stud packages.
There are no double backers
here, and we followed Mack's own 96-stud package template.
The backers come in 6 different finishes from Mack including
red, blue, green, gold, silver and a matte metal finish
so they match just about any color machine you own.
We didn't have one
bent or pulled stud all winter and we were
pleased with the minimal wear we saw after several hundred
miles.
We also we pleased to see that
at Mack you can buy complete packages of studs, backers
and fasteners for a little less than many competitors.
And you don't have to buy each of the components separately,
which can take some of the confusion out of ordering
online or over the phone, especially for first time
buyers.
Thank you so much for
all your help, I love your products . I have got at
least 8 of my friends to buy studs from you, cause I
kill them off the line and they don't bend or break!
Thanks again! Joe- Hampstead,
NH
