Find Cat® Large Excavator Tracks for Any Terrain
Estimated read time: 2 minutes
Steel track undercarriages are built tough. They’re one of the best options for working in soft, rocky or uneven terrain. Durable and stable, they’re ready for hard work. Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the right track option for your Cat® large hydraulic excavator (models 336-395).
Choosing Excavator Tracks
Selecting the best tracks for Cat large hydraulic excavators depends on a few key factors:
- Machine usage: Consider how often you’ll use the excavator and the type of work it will do.
- Material type: Ground conditions impact track performance. Soft soil wears tracks differently than rocky surfaces.
- Cost: Think about how long you plan to keep the excavator and how long the track should last.
Share these details with your authorized Cat dealer. They’ll help you select the best track for your needs.
General Duty Tracks
General duty tracks are a good option for low- to moderate-impact jobs with low hour usage. If your excavator is used on lighter workloads, general duty tracks are a cost-effective choice.
Heavy Duty Tracks
If you’re doing tough jobs in demanding ground conditions, heavy duty tracks are a better fit.
- Available for Cat 336 to 352 excavators
- Built to last in applications like heavy construction and demolition
Heavy duty and general duty track components are also interchangeable, so you can switch them out as needed without much downtime.
Heavy Duty XL Tracks
For the 349 excavator and larger models, consider heavy duty XL tracks. Heavy duty XL tracks are ideal for rough terrain and jobs that require frequent travel.
- Designed for extreme applications
- Stronger track links
- Special pin-locking design for added durability
With the right track undercarriage, your Cat large hydraulic excavator will tackle any jobsite demands. Whether you’re working on light-duty projects or rugged terrain, choosing the right track will boost performance and help reduce downtime.
If you know which configuration you need, you can order the right tracks for your equipment online.
