Non-Marking Split Bar Tread — Is It Right for Your Work?
| Pattern | Best Used For |
|---|---|
| Bar | Flat terrain · large ground contact · stability on firm surfaces |
| Block | General purpose · hardpack · dirt · long pavement runs |
| C-Lug | Mixed terrain · grading · site work · on/off road · concrete & dirt |
| Split Bar | Bidirectional traction · shock absorption · smooth ride on varied ground |
| Turf | Lawns · landscaping · minimal ground disturbance |
| Z-Lug | Steep grades · snow · ice · maximum traction applications |
Standard black rubber versions also available. See standard patterns →
The Non-Marking Split Bar combines the bidirectional traction and smooth ride of the Split Bar pattern with a white rubber compound that won't mark finished surfaces. Perfect for indoor construction, renovations on existing floors, and warehouse environments where both traction and surface protection matter. See all available patterns at the bottom of this page.
Know Your Machine: Bobcat T740 Undercarriage Facts
The T740 is a large-frame Bobcat CTL with a 3,200 lb rated operating capacity on a single standard track width of 450mm (17.7"). At 10,127 lbs with 4.2 psi ground pressure, it delivers serious production lifting and pushing on a wide, stable footprint. The 450mm is the factory-standard width — optimized for the T740's capacity at lower ground pressure than narrower-track competitors. Here's what that means for your track purchase:
What's Inside the Track
| Component | Specification | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Iron Cores | Drop-forged steel embeds · pitch-spaced | Maintain track shape · resist deformation under load · engage sprocket cleanly |
| Steel Cords | Acid-washed · continuous cord layer | Carry tensile load · prevent stretching · hold pitch dimension over time |
| Rubber Compound | Non-marking white rubber · premium compound | Won't leave black marks on finished surfaces · same durability as standard |
| Non-Marking Split Bar Tread | White rubber compound, no black marks | Split bar pattern for bidirectional traction. Premium compound for sensitive surfaces. |
| Lug Height | ~1" nominal new depth | Replace when worn below ⅓ remaining — traction loss accelerates past that point |
Is It Time to Replace Your T740's Tracks?
| What You're Seeing | What It Means | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Exposed steel cords | Carcass worn through — moisture will corrode cords | Replace immediately |
| Flat or missing lugs | Tread depth below ⅓ of original 1" — traction loss | Plan replacement soon |
| Track won't hold tension | Carcass has stretched beyond adjuster range | Replace track · inspect adjuster |
| Cracks around guide bars | Aging rubber · UV damage · abrasive turning | Monitor closely, plan replacement |
| Track jumping off | Tension too loose OR guide bar/idler damage | Check tension first · inspect guide bars |
At 10,127 lbs operating weight the T740 accelerates track wear faster than lighter machines. On abrasive surfaces (concrete, asphalt), expect 1,200–1,500 hours from quality replacement tracks. Soft-ground or dirt-only work can extend this considerably.
