Complete Snowmobile Stud Kit: Studs, Backers, Nuts, and Template Included
A complete snowmobile stud kit means every part needed to stud a track arrives in one order: the studs, the backer or support plate under each one, the nut, and the pattern template that tells you which windows to drill. The tables below show what each manufacturer includes per unit, what is sold separately, and how quantity is ordered.
Fast-Trac kits are sold per assembly: quantity 1 is one stud, one backer, and one nut, so any count from 24 to 216 can be ordered directly. Woody's and Stud Boy sell studs with nuts and price backer plates separately.
