How to Choose the Right Track for Your Bobcat
The correct track size ensures proper tension, smooth operation, and even wear. Bobcat tracks are sized by width × pitch × number of links. Each skid steer model requires a specific combination—installing the wrong size leads to premature wear or de-tracking.
Track width affects performance:
- Wide tracks improve flotation and stability on mud, sand, and loose soil.
- Narrow tracks increase maneuverability and reduce stress on the undercarriage.
Maintenance Tips to Extend Track Life
Follow these quick tips to maximize skid steer track lifespan:
- Keep tracks properly tensioned — too loose = de-tracking, too tight = early wear.
- Clean the undercarriage daily to remove mud, gravel, and debris.
- Inspect for cuts or chunking in the tread and lugs.
- Replace worn sprockets when installing new tracks to prevent premature wear.
A well-maintained set of Bobcat tracks can last significantly longer and help your machine run smoother on every job site.
When Should You Replace Bobcat Tracks?
Replace your tracks when you notice: deep cracking, exposed cords, severe lug wear, poor traction, or frequent de-tracking. Heavy-use machines may require new tracks every 12–24 months.
