Excavator Tracks
Excavators are commonly used for construction work and digging/moving loads. With the evolution of excavators, smaller and more-compact sizes of this machine have been developed.
A mini excavator’s performance can be greatly improved with the right tires. Since pushing power, better digging and overall machine performance are important, McLaren’s excavator tracks cater to these needs and more. With various tread patterns and custom formulated rubber compound, the following excavator tracks increase traction, improve undercarriage life, sustain stability on sand, soft ground, snow, mud, gravel among other terrains and provide a smoother and more comfortable ride.
- Next Generation Rubber Tracks – these rubber tracks are the most reliable and durable option for mini excavators. They provide top quality performance on any terrain, including the harshest ones. It is the SpoolRite Belting Technology that contributes most for this. In its essence, this design features a single, non-overlapping steel belt, which has no joints. This, along with the wear-resistant rubber compound used, means that the threat of track breaking and tearing is eliminated. The track fits perfectly and guarantees superb metal-to-rubber bonding. The tracks are available in varying sizes from 180mm to 500mm wide. Multiple tread patterns have been developed for optimal traction and reduced vibrations. OEM tests show a clear result: the Next Generation rubber mini excavator tracks of McLaren outperform other premium quality tracks. With these high performance tracks the productivity of any machine can be boosted, and its undercarriage work life prolonged. Next Generation mini excavator rubber tracks represent the finest rubber tracks on the market currently.
- Maximizer Rubber Tracks – the Maximizer series of McLaren rubber excavator tracks are a cost-effective way of ensuring reliable tracks solutions at the right price. These tracks consist of a continuous belt made of reinforced steel, which guarantees their integrity at all times. One thing notable about McLaren’s mini excavator tracks is that they use 30% more rubber in comparison to other tracks of the same class. In addition to that, the rubber compound used for the tracks is of the highest quality so that maximum track life is guaranteed. The track size portfolio ranges from 180mm to 450mm wide rubber tracks. The Maximizer Series offer the best quality for a low price, which is perfect for contractors working under strict budget restrictions.
- Hybrid Steel Tracks with Pads – an ingenious design is featured in McLaren’s Hybrid Steel series, which get the best of both worlds – strength and durability from steel and versatility of rubber. These excavator tracks include bolt-on rubber pads and are specially designed to excel in extreme ground conditions. It is the replaceable rubber shoes that guarantee extra protection and twice as long work life in comparison to conventional rubber tracks. The rubber pads of the tracks are custom designed to provide great traction on all terrains, making the work of the machine much more effective. McLaren’s hybrid steel tracks are very easy to install, as they use an interchangeable carriage system. This removes the need for changing undercarriage parts to replace the existing rubber tracks. The rubber pad replacements are the best cost-effective solution for work on sensitive pavement, concrete and asphalt areas. The pads are easy to remove, don’t demand much maintenance and provide extra utility. The pads are manufactured with McLaren’s proprietary rubber compound formula, which makes them more reliable than any other rubber excavator tracks. It makes the pads resistant to sharp objects and also provides slow wear out and maximum performance on any terrain. Whenever need demands it, the pads can be removed to leave an all-steel track to take on challenging terrain – rocky soil, demolition areas, stone and gravel. The steel tracks are the best friend of users that operate in severe weather and ground conditions, such as demolition, mining and work on construction sites in urban environment. McLaren Hybrid tracks are linked with the 40Cr track link, making them super strong and durable. The hardness of the track link body varies between HRC 32 – 35, while the hardness of the top surface of the track link is manufactured to a level of HRC 50 -55. These manufacturing techniques guarantee track longevity and strength. Hybrid steel tracks with pads vary in size from 300mm to 450mm in width.
