Chelyabinsk Tractor Factory, also known as CTZ-Uraltrac, is a tractor plant in the Russian city of Chelyabinsk. The plant was founded in 1933; the first product was a 60 hp tracked tractor С-60 fueled by petroleum ether. By 1940 the plant had produced 100,000 tractors. During World War II the plant was renamed Chelyabinsk Kirov Narkomtankprom Zavod, and was expanded due to the relocation of factories to the area from western Russia. In 1940 engineers in the Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant began production of Soviet tanks (T-34, SU-152). Due to the rapid establishment of tank construction on a massive scale in 1941, Chelyabinsk gained the nickname Tankograd ('Tank City'). Post World War II conventional tractor production resumed with the С-80 entering serial production in 1946. The plant reverted to its original name of Chelyabinsk Traktornyy Zavod in 1958.
