Our most frequently asked question is "How do I find my track size?"  TEL. 01633 645980 if you are not sure and give us make & model of machine.

 

There are several ways to find out which replacement track you need. First, check your existing track to see if the size is stamped into the rubber. It is usually very difficult to find the track size as it is common for the stamp to wear off during normal use.

 

If you can't find a track size stamped into the rubber then you can take three simple measurements that will determine which replacement track you need.

  1. Measure the width of the track in millimeters.
  2. Measure the distance from the center of one link to the center of the next link (in millimeters). This is commonly known as the pitch of the track.
  3. Count the number of links, or lugs all the way around the track

The measurement is read Width x Pitch x Links.

There are about 2500 different types of machines on the market today. These machines use a wide variety of tracks sizes. Sprocket driven rubber tracks are put into two different classifications, conventional and interchangeable.



1. Conventional type rubber tracks can only be operated on undercarriages designed for rubber tracks only. Conventional type tracks have a pitch measurement (this is the distance from the center of one metal link to the center of the next metal link) of 60,72,84,86,87,90,100, 125 and 150 millimeters

 

2. Interchangeable type rubber tracks can be used on undercarriages designed to operate steel and rubber tracks.

 

Interchangeable tracks can be made in a long pitch or short pitch style track. These tracks have pitch measurements of 48,96,52.5,54,55,56,71,72.5,73,81,81.5,83,83.5,109,142,144,146,163 and 167 millimeters. Some machines can have an even greater pitch measurement.
