DuraLine Rubber Pads

Bolt-On Rubber Pads

A bolt-on pad bolts through a predrilled steel track shoe, with nothing clamped on to the chain. It lets a steel-tracked excavator work on roadways, concrete hard-standing and other finished surfaces without risk of damage, as a semi-permanent conversion for machines that keep their pads on between jobs.

Astrak supplies DuraLine bolt-on rubber pads in widths from 300mm to 700mm, on link pitches from 101mm to 190mm, listed by make and model for 55 machine makes. Every pad is backed by a 6-month warranty.

Place your order before 4:30pm and it will be despatched for delivery on the next working day. Bolt-on pads bolt through a predrilled steel track shoe; DuraTrack shoes are available with a predrilled option.

Bolt-On Pad Sizes by Link Pitch

The pad is set by the link pitch of the chain and the width of the track shoe. Measure the pitch between two adjacent pins and the shoe width, and read across.

Bolt-On Pads for Every Major Make

DuraLine bolt-on pads are listed by machine make and model, with the pad width, link pitch and quantity per machine on every product. Not listed? Send the make, model and shoe width and we will confirm.

Bolt-On, Clip-On or Roadliner?

All three styles do the same job. What separates them is how they fix to the track and how often the pads have to come off.

  • Bolt-on, 300mm to 700mm. Bolts through a predrilled shoe, with nothing clamped on to the chain. A semi-permanent conversion, for machines where the pads stay on.
  • Clip-on, 300mm to 850mm. A fixed bracket one side and a clamp the other, fitted in half the time of conventional pads, for machines that move between road work and dirt. See clip-on rubber pads.
  • Roadliner, 400mm to 600mm. A one-piece vulcanised pad that bolts directly to the chain in place of the shoe.

Bolt-on pads need a predrilled shoe. If the shoes are close to their wear limit, fit the pads to new shoes rather than to shoes due for replacement. DuraTrack triple grouser shoes are supplied from 300mm to 1200mm, with a predrilled option.

Whichever style you choose, the chain underneath decides how long the job lasts. A free undercarriage inspection measures chain stretch, rail height and grouser height and reports the wear percentage of each, so pads go onto a chain with life left in it.

Bolt-On Pad Questions, Answered

What is a bolt-on rubber pad?
A bolt-on rubber pad bolts through a predrilled steel track shoe, so a steel-tracked excavator can work on roads, concrete hard-standing and other finished surfaces without damaging them. It is a semi-permanent conversion with nothing clamped on to the chain, suited to a machine that keeps its pads on between jobs.
What sizes do bolt-on pads come in?
Widths run from 300mm to 700mm on link pitches from 101mm to 190mm. The pad is chosen by the link pitch of the chain and the width of the track shoe, and every pad we list is matched to a specific make and model.
How are bolt-on pads fitted?
Each pad bolts through a predrilled steel track shoe. If the existing shoes are not predrilled, DuraTrack shoes are available with a predrilled option. Send the make and model and we will confirm the pad and the shoe.
How many bolt-on pads does my machine need?
One per track shoe, so the quantity is the total number of shoes on both tracks. A JCB JS130LC or Hitachi ZX130-5 takes 88 pads; a Komatsu PC210-8 or CAT 320D takes 90; a Hitachi ZX210-3 takes 92. The exact quantity for your machine is shown on its product page.
Should I choose bolt-on or clip-on pads?
It depends on how often the pads come off. Bolt-on is a semi-permanent conversion for a machine that keeps its pads on, and needs a predrilled shoe. Clip-on pads fit in half the time of conventional pads and need no predrilled shoe, which suits a machine moving between road work and dirt. Bolt-on covers 300mm to 700mm; clip-on covers 300mm to 850mm. Tell us how the machine is used and we will price both.
How quickly can you deliver bolt-on pads?
Place your order before 4:30pm and it will be despatched for delivery on the next working day. Bolt-on pads are available from stock across the width range, with delivery reliability across the business running at 95% on time in full.
