How to Identify Your Dozer Idlers

Idlers change between models, and often between serial number ranges of the same model. Five details let our team confirm the right idler before it ships.

What to checkWhy it matters
Make, model and serial numberSets the idler for the machine and the serial number range.
Front or rear idlerSome models take more than one idler, so each listing names it by position, wheel diameter or bolt spacing.
Links in the track chainConfirms the chain the idler runs with.
Track shoe widthMeasured in millimeters. Wide shoes increase idler tread and flange wear.
Markings on the old idlerAny numbers on the idler are cross-referenced against our product reference guide.

Scroll the table sideways to see every column.

Also tell us whether the machine runs a standard undercarriage or a proprietary system such as Cat SystemOne or Komatsu PLUS.

Idler or roller?
The idler guides the track chain and keeps the track at the correct tension. Carrier rollers carry the upper run of the track over the frame, and track rollers carry the machine weight along the underside. All three are listed by make and model.
How are dozer idlers built?
A complete cast assembly with a heavy-duty seal group, shaft and brackets, built to OEM specification.
How does the idler hold track tension?
The idler is extended by grease pressure in the recoil cylinder, which keeps the track at the correct tension. Keep the track correctly adjusted to protect the idler, chain and rollers.

Dozer Idler Wear: What to Look For

The chain runs round the idlers, so the idlers, chain and rollers wear together. Measure the idlers against new dimensions whenever the undercarriage is measured, so the parts are changed once and together. Our team will tell you what to measure.

  • Worn treads and flanges where the chain runs on the idler
  • Packed material in the undercarriage, which stops the chain running true
  • Track shoes wider than the job needs, which speed up tread and flange wear
  • Wear on the chain and rollers at the same time

Run the narrowest shoe that still floats the machine and keep the track at the correct tension.

A full dozer kit adds the idlers, carrier rollers and bottom rollers to the track groups and sprocket segments, so everything wears from the same starting point.

Dozer Idler FAQs

What is a dozer idler?
An idler guides the track chain on a crawler dozer or track loader and keeps the track at the correct tension, extended by grease pressure in the recoil cylinder. DuraTrack dozer idlers are complete cast assemblies with heavy-duty seal groups, shafts and brackets.
Do you stock dozer idlers in the US?
Yes. DuraTrack dozer idlers are held in US stock in Texas. Order stocked idlers by 4:00pm CT and they ship the same day. If the idler for your machine is not in stock we confirm the lead time when we quote, before you commit.
Which dozer makes and models do you cover?
More than 350 crawler dozer and track loader models, including the CAT D4, D5, D6, D8, D9 and D10, John Deere 450, 550, 650, 700 and 850, Case 550, 650, 750, 850 and 1150, Komatsu D31 to D155, and Liebherr PR734 to PR751. Send the make, model and serial number and we confirm the correct idler against our product reference guide.
Does my machine take more than one idler?
Some models do. Where they do, each listing names the idler by position, wheel diameter or bolt spacing. The model and serial number tell us which your undercarriage takes.
How do I know my idlers are worn?
Check the tread and flanges where the chain runs on the idler, and look for packed material in the undercarriage. Measure the idlers against new dimensions at the same time as the chain and rollers.
Should I replace the idlers with the rest of the undercarriage?
A full dozer kit adds the idlers, carrier rollers and bottom rollers to the track groups and sprocket segments, so everything wears from the same starting point. Where only one part is at its limit, it can be replaced on its own.
What warranty comes with dozer idlers?
DuraTrack dozer idlers carry a 3 year, 4,000 hour warranty, whichever comes first, under the Astrak US Product Warranty Policy for steel undercarriage. We confirm the terms for your parts when we quote.
