One of the most important factors in helping you achieve the lowest owning and operating costs and maximizing equipment uptime is matching the right undercarriage option to your specific machine model and work application.
At Teknoxgroup we provide you with the knowledge and tools to help you choose the best undercarriage configuration for your equipment and your job.
TRACK FRAME CONFIGURATION
Standard (STD), Long (L), Long Narrow (LN), Reduced Radius (RR), Long Reduced Radius (LRR)
WIDTH OF TRACK SHOES
Narrow, intermediate or wide
UNDERFOOT CONDITIONS
Light, moderate or severe abrasion and impact
TERRAIN
Slope conditions, size and type of material
PACKING CONDITIONS
Operating in extrudable materials, which can usually be squeezed out from between track parts when wet, for example, clay soils
Operating in non-extrudable materials, which can’t be extruded from the link windows and track shoe center holes of most undercarriage tracks, for example, branches
APPLICATION
Digging, hammering, or moving rocks
PERFORMANCE YOU CAN COUNT ON
We recommend General Duty undercarriage, a Grease Lubricated Track (GLT), for your low-to-moderate impact applications where the elevated performance of the Cat Heavy Duty track undercarriage is not needed.
INTERCHANGEABLE COMPONENTS
While General Duty track is built to different specifications than Heavy Duty, we design it so General Duty and Heavy Duty components are interchangeable. That eliminates any need for retrofitting and keeps your machine downtime to a minimum. Additionally, Cat Heavy Duty shoes can be installed on General Duty link assemblies, making them more flexible to meet your needs.
A VARIETY OF OPTIONS
A variety of track shoe options are offered for General Duty. In addition to undercarriage components, track shoe selection can impact traction and flotation as well as overall undercarriage wear life. For the conditions in which General Duty Undercarriage will typically operate, moderate service shoes offer optimal performance and wear life.
PARTS WHEN YOU NEED THEM
At Teknoxgroup, we have General Duty parts stocked and available for fast turnaround, keeping you and your machine working.
Undercarriage designed and built by Caterpillar to deliver longer wear life and lower owning and operating costs. In most tough underfoot conditions, Heavy Duty track extends your undercarriage system life up to 30 percent more than Cat General Duty, with the greatest benefits realized in medium impact and medium travel applications such as:
Each track joint is sealed to retain the grease between the pin and bushing to minimize internal wear with our Grease Lubricated Track (GLT) technology.
MAXIMUM DURABILITY IN TOUGH CONDITIONS WITH EXTENDED WEAR LIFE AND LOWER OPERATING COSTS
Proven Cat Heavy Duty design with the addition of stronger Duralink and Positive Pin Retention 2 (PPR2) achieves best results in high-impact and high-travel applications such as mining, heavy construction, pipe laying, demolition, and scrap handling.
PPR2 is an exclusive Caterpillar offering that mechanically locks the link to the pin to handle the toughest conditions.
INCREASED TRACK LIFE
Resists pin walking and link cracking for reliable sealing and maximum track life.
LONGER WEAR CYCLE
Tightly controls seal motion for long internal pin/bushing wear life.
STRONGER TRACK LINKS
Resists fatigue & crack formation with redesigned, stronger track links
GREASE LUBRICATION
The internally greased pin and bushing with seals offers several benefits over sealed track.
LARGER BUSHING
The outer diameter of the bushing has been increased for Grease Lubricated Track and offers many benefits.
WITH GREASE LUBRICATED TRACK, INTERNAL WEAR IS ELIMINATED UNTIL THE GREASE DISSIPATES FROM THE LINE ASSEMBLY.
Without Grease Lubricated Track, internal pin and bushing wear begins immediately because of contact and friction between the two parts. Grease Lubricated Track contains grease between the pin and bushing to eliminate the contact and friction wear elements. This results in a significant increase of internal wear life of the link assembly.

DIG DEEPER & SAVE TIME AND MONEY WITH A CLAMP MASTER DESIGN THAT MAKES TRACK INSTALLATION SAFER AND EASIER.
Caterpillar’s new Clamp Master saves you time and money by making track installation on most models of Cat Hydraulic Excavators safer and easier than ever. The improved clamping master track link assembly replaces both slip style and press fit joints. With this innovative design, use of a portable field press is unnecessary-which means you get back to work faster.
INCREASED SERVICEABILITY
Improved master joint that addresses durability and serviceability in a single design
STRONGER PIN RETENTION
25% better pin retention than a press fit master, removing the risk of damage to the cotter pin
NO SPECIAL TOOLS
Eliminates the need for a portable field press. No special master pin required for track master link.
WIDE APPLICATION
Available for any standard hydraulic excavator in 19.05 cm pitch size class (315-326)
