Track shoes

Track shoes carry the whole machine over broken rock. They take impact, abrasion and bending at once. Their pin bores must stay round for the chain to run.

Works in
Crawler tracks of mining shovels, mobile crushers and other tracked machines.
Industries
Mining
Materials
Manganese steel, Carbon or low-alloy steel
Size
Single pieces from 3 kg to 7 tonnes, to drawing
Supplied
As cast, or machined to drawing
Inspection
Chemistry and hardness on every heat; UT, MPI or DPT and a dimensional report as specified
From a worn part
Yes. Send the part or photographs with key dimensions and we will reverse-engineer it

How it fails and what we do about it

  1. 01Grouser and pad wearManganese steel that work-hardens on the rock.
  2. 02Pin-bore wearBores held to drawing.
  3. 03Cracking under loadSound sections and full heat treatment.
02

Choosing the grade

Typical values from the governing standards. A metallurgist confirms the grade for your duty with every quotation.

Usual choice

Austenitic manganese steel

Most tracks working on rock.

ASTM A128 · IS 276 · EN 10349

Alternative

Carbon and low-alloy steels

Low-alloy steel where the design calls for it.

ASTM A27 · ASTM A148 · IS 1030 · IS 2644 · EN 10293

What we control

  • Made to drawingFrom the OEM drawing, a part number or a worn sample reverse-engineered in-house.
  • Heat treated for the dutyWater quench for manganese steel; air or oil quench and temper for alloy steel.
  • Machined to fitBores, pin holes and flanges machined so the part installs first time.
  • Tested and recordedHardness, chemistry and NDT reported with the casting.

For a quotation, send any of these

  • Equipment make and model, or the OEM part number
  • Drawing, or the worn part or photographs with key dimensions
  • The grade used today and the life it gives
  • Quantity per set and sets per year
