FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions about 160x87x28 rubber tracks
What machines fit the 160x87x28 rubber track?
The 160x87x28 is a standard rubber track size used across multiple CTL and skid-steer brands. Check your current track's sidewall for the 160x87x28 marking to confirm this is your direct-fit replacement.
What does the 160x87x28 size mean?
The size 160x87x28 describes the three key dimensions of the track: 160mm wide (6.3") × 87.0mm pitch (distance between lug centers) × 28 links (total lugs around the loop). All three numbers must match your current track — width determines machine fit, pitch must match the drive sprocket, and link count sets the overall track length.
What tread patterns are available for the 160x87x28?
The 160x87x28 is available in 3 tread patterns:
- C-Block: Heavy construction, asphalt work, concrete yards, rocky ground. Turns easier and provides improved machine control. Longest life on hard surfaces, slightly less traction in mud.
- Zig-Zag: Stepped, interlocking lug design creates biting edges in every direction — prevents side-slipping on ice, snow, and wet clay. Lower ground pressure reduces ruts on finished lawns. Bi-directional stability for shuttle work.
- Multi-Bar: Deep multi-bar design bites into soft mud and loose soil for industry-leading grip on inclines. Higher shore-hardness rubber resists gouging from roots and debris. Wide bar spacing self-cleans mud and snow.
How long does a 160x87x28 rubber track last?
Most operators get 1,500–2,000 hours out of a set in general construction use. Rocky ground, concrete yards, or demolition work drops that to 800–1,200 hours. Snow, turf, and dirt work push it past 2,500 hours with good maintenance. Inspect monthly — replace when lugs are worn to half-height or you see exposed steel cord.
Should I replace my sprockets when I replace my tracks?
General rule of thumb: replace sprockets every other track change. However, if you operate in sand, rocky ground, or demolition environments, sprocket wear accelerates and you should inspect — and often replace — with every track change. Worn sprockets (hooked teeth, flattened profile) will destroy a brand-new track within 200 hours. If in doubt, replace them together — cheaper than a ruined track.
How much does a 160x87x28 track weigh, and what's shipping?
Each 160x87x28 track weighs approximately 41 lbs. Both tracks ship together on a single pallet via free LTL freight to the contiguous 48 states. A forklift or liftgate is recommended for delivery. Orders placed before noon CT ship same-day.
What track size fits the 160x87x28?
Check the size stamp molded into your existing track (format: Width x Pitch x Links, e.g., 450x86x60) or use our Track Finder tool to confirm the correct size for your 160x87x28.
What warranty comes with 160x87x28 rubber tracks?
All 160x87x28 replacement rubber tracks include a 24-month warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. This applies to contractor-grade use on properly maintained undercarriage systems.
What tread patterns are available for the 160x87x28?
Multiple tread patterns are available including C-Block (hard surfaces), Zig-Zag (all-terrain), and Multi-Bar (turf-friendly). Select based on your primary work environment.
How fast can I get 160x87x28 tracks shipped?
Orders placed before 12 PM CT ship same day from our Georgia warehouse. Standard delivery is 1-3 business days nationwide. Tracks ship on pallets with free curbside delivery to commercial addresses.
How do I confirm these tracks will fit my 160x87x28?
Three ways to verify fitment: (1) Check the size stamp on your current track. (2) Use our Track Finder tool with your serial number. (3) Call (850) 816-7898 and we will confirm compatibility before you order.
