Polyurethane Track Pads for Steel-Tracked Equipment
VectorMax polyurethane track pads are made for steel-tracked excavators, dozers, and other heavy equipment working on paved, finished, or surface-sensitive jobsites. They help reduce surface damage, vibration, and operating noise while retaining the stability of a steel undercarriage.
Choose the right mounting style
Bolt-on track pads are a secure option when the steel shoes have suitable mounting holes. They are a practical fit for planned, longer-term use.
Clip-on track pads fit over compatible steel grousers for faster installation and removal. They are useful when your equipment alternates between soft ground and hard surfaces.
Single-side clip-on pads are designed for compatible track configurations that require one-sided engagement. Confirm the steel shoe profile before ordering.
What to confirm before ordering
- Track shoe width in millimeters
- Mounting-hole spacing for bolt-on pads
- Grouser profile and height for clip-on pads
- Machine make, model, and operating weight
- Whether your work includes asphalt, concrete, pavers, or finished surfaces
Why polyurethane track pads?
Polyurethane is a wear-resistant material choice for professional equipment. Compared with conventional rubber track pads, it can offer strong resistance to abrasion and impact in demanding work conditions. Actual service life depends on machine weight, surface conditions, installation, and maintenance.

Track pad FAQ
Are polyurethane track pads compatible with every excavator?
No. Fitment depends on track shoe width, mounting-hole pattern or grouser shape, and machine configuration. Confirm measurements before ordering.
Should I choose bolt-on or clip-on track pads?
Choose bolt-on pads when your steel shoes have compatible mounting holes and you need a secure installed solution. Choose clip-on pads when compatible grousers and faster changeover are the priority.
Can track pads help protect asphalt and concrete?
They are designed to reduce direct steel-to-surface contact and can help limit marking, noise, and surface disturbance. Always operate according to site conditions and equipment guidance.
What information do I need for fitment help?
Please provide your machine make and model, pad width, track shoe details, and mounting-hole or grouser measurements. Photos are helpful for confirming the configuration.
