Mittelstollen It was a handle for the tracks of German tanks, which had drive wheels with a pair of toothed pinions. It was a similar belt attachment to the Gabelstollen known from the Pz.Kpfw.I and Pz.Kpfw.II tanks. This add-on served to better engage tank tracks in heavy muddy and frozen terrain. It was an aid in the manner of "climbing crampons". The mounting was done in the middle of the links. They are known from use on Pz.Kpfw.III/Pz.Kpfw.IV, Pz.Kpfw.V "Panther", Pz.Kpfw.VI Ausf.E "Tiger" and Pz.Kpfw.VI Ausf.B "Tiger II" (Mittelstollen Breit).
