Bobcat Offers New Track Options for Track Loaders

Bobcat Co., West Fargo, Neb., has announced the launch of two new replacement rubber track patterns for compact track loaders.

The new Bobcat Multi-Bar Lug (MBL) and EarthForce Bar Lug replacement rubber tracks provide loaders with traction and operator comfort, the company says.

The new Bobcat MBL track features tread lugs, which enables a softer, smoother ride, according to a company press release. The expanded steel-link forgings also provide the machine with greater stability, allowing for a wider steel cable belt and increasing the strength of the tracks, the company says.

Bobcat MBL tracks are constructed with cut- and crack-resistant rubber compounds, which are formulated to carry the maximum load of the machine at full capacity.

 The new tracks have different rubber compound densities, enabling the multiple layers of rubber to perform different functions, the company says. An outside layer (comprised of a hard, severe rubber compound) provides cut resistance and traction, while the inside layers (made of a softer durometer) help maintain track flexibility, the company adds.
