Upgrade Your 1/16 R/C Sherman with Tamiya 84221 Die-Cast Idlers

The Tamiya 84221 Die-Cast Metal Idler Wheels are built to elevate the look and function of your 1/16 scale R/C Sherman tank. Constructed from robust die-cast metal and supplied with ball bearings, these idlers reduce friction and give a convincing metal finish that appeals to serious model builders.

They are compatible with a number of Sherman kits, including the M4 Sherman 105mm Howitzer and the M51 "Super Sherman". The precise moulding and scale-accurate detail help improve the visual realism of your build while remaining an easy upgrade for hobbyists focused on authenticity.

  • Material: Die-cast metal
  • Includes: 2 idler wheels
  • Compatibility: M4 Sherman 105mm Howitzer, M51 "Super Sherman"
  • Scale: 1/16

How straightforward is the installation?

Installation is generally simple for anyone familiar with Sherman kits; you will usually remove the old idler, fit the new wheel with its bearing, and secure with the original fasteners. Basic hand tools are all you need.

Do these require special maintenance?

Routine checks for dirt and occasional light lubrication of the bearings will keep them spinning freely. Wipe away grit after off-road runs to prolong service life.

Will they change my tank handling?

They provide smoother rotation at the idler end which can slightly reduce drivetrain drag, but they are mainly a visual and durability upgrade rather than a major performance modification.
