Undercarriage Services
50% of the cost of owning and operating
a machine is related to its undercarriage
• Early detection of wear, misalignment and damage
is key to avoiding serious, costly repairs
• Proper operation—maintain the correct track tension,
consistent cleaning, keep service records
• Routine inspection—sprockets, bushings, bushing turn,
components, rollers, alignment, nuts and bolts
• Soil conditions determine shoe type
RoadBuilders’ 3 Step Support System
1. Regularly Scheduled Inspections
RoadBuilders recommends regularly scheduled inspections for all brands, all types of track equipment. During our inspections, we routinely discuss proper track tension and cleaning requirements with your staff to maximize the life of your equipment's track system. We identify operational and maintenance concerns that could reduce the life of any components and recommend an appropriate preventive maintenance program.
2. Monitoring Use with Accurate Inspections
For accurate, quick undercarriage inspections, RoadBuilders’ trained product support representatives will inspect your undercarriage to determine its remaining life. The thickness indicates wear and life expectancy. A factory trained RoadBuilders technician evaluates the data and recommends operational actions, maintenance activities and/or component replacements.
3. Scheduling Maintenance and Factory Support
Any track type machine needs repair or replacement of track life components periodically. RoadBuilders can provide reliable estimates for the remaining hours of life, so that you can schedule maintenance, rather than be surprised by expenses and downtime due to breakdowns. Our shops are equipped to provide a wide range of track services, cylinders, and drive motors. All remanufactured components meet OEM standards and carry a warranty that leads the industry.
