High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Zimmerit was a coating produced for German armored fighting vehicles during World War II for the purpose of combating magnetically attached anti-tank mines, although Germany was the only country to use magnetic mines against tanks in great numbers. It was created by the German company Chemische Werke Zimmer AG.The coating was a barrier that prevented the direct contact of magnetic mines against the metal surfaces of the vehicle. It was normally ridged to increase the overall thickness. This spacing reduces magnetic attraction, and causes magnetic mines to fall off from their own weight and the vibration of the vehicle. Zimmerit possessed no anti-magnetic properties of its own, rather it defeated the mines by disallowing contact and providing distance.
