x X X X X 473 CLIPPING 101: TECHNICAL ADVISER In addition to leading edge profile development and innovative and convenient functionality, Camoplast’s ongoing commitment to offering the best snowmobile track technology also includes the use of various clip configurations. By using various window and clipping configurations it enables your track to maximize performance and efficiencies on the snow. Here is some info to assist you on understanding the benefits of each application FULLY CLIPPED • All windows open - all pitches have clips • Best for high speed applications • Recommended for internal / external drive sprockets PACE 2 • All windows open - guide clip placed every 2nd pitch • Weight savings for specific Mountain Models • Compatible with internal / external drive sprockets PACE 3 • All windows open - guide clip placed every 3rd pitch. • 3 lb weight savings on 121’ - 136” tracks • Economical - less expensive than “Full” clip • Universal - windows are open if clips need to be applied EVERY 3RD (P2S1) • Guide clip placed every 3rd pitch - windows “closed” between the non-clipped areas • 3 lb weight savings on 121” - 136” tracks • Economical - less expensive than “Full” clip tracks • Recommended for on/off trail applications • Not compatible with internal / external drive sprockets TRACK PITCH / LENGTH 101: TECHNICAL ADVISER With several different track pitches currently supplied on new snowmobiles, there is an increasing level of confusion about track pitch and length. Here is some information to assist you in determining track pitch and length. DETERMINING TRACK PITCH • Measure 10 pitches (the distance between 11 cross bars) • Divide that measurement by 10 • If the 10 pitch distance measured is 25¼” the pitch is 2.52” • If the 10 pitch distance measured is 30” the pitch is 3.0” • If the 10 pitch distance measured is 285/8” the pitch is 2.86” DETERMINING TRACK LENGTH • Count the number of crossbars on the track • Multiply the number of crossbars times the pitch Example: 54 pitches x 2.86” = 154.44” (this track is called 155 by one OEM and 154 by another OEM) SNOW BIKE SURVIVAL SNOWMOBILE ACCESSORIES HANDLEBARS / CONTROLS CABLES WINDSHIELDS BODY SKIS / RUNNERS FRONT SUSPENSION REAR SUSPENSION SHOCKS TRACKS / STUDS SPROCKETS ELECTRICAL EXHAUST ENGINE AIR / FUEL CLUTCHING BELTS BRAKES CHAIN / SPROCKETS LUBRICANTS / CHEMICALS TOOLS / HARDWARE TRANSPORT / RAMPS INDEX TRACKS / STUDS / SPROCKETS
