Product Description
Which Width Is Right for Your MT100?
- Factory-installed width on most MT100s
- Lower tension on rollers → longer undercarriage life
- Best for hard surfaces: concrete, asphalt, packed gravel
- Better maneuverability in tight spaces
- SKU: 180x72x45T-BTMT100
- Distributes MT100's 3,390 lbs weight over a larger footprint
- Reduces psi → less lawn & turf damage
- Ideal for soft/wet ground, mud, landscaping work
- Larger footprint absorbs more impact — softer ride on rough terrain
- SKU: 230x72x45T-BTMT100
Not sure which to choose? Most MT100s leave the factory with 180mm tracks, but all widths install on the same undercarriage without modification. Or just call us at 800-966-6640 and tell us your machine — we'll match you in 30 seconds.
Turf Tread — Is It Right for Your Work?
| Pattern | Best Used For |
|---|---|
| S Bar | Firm ground · general purpose · smooth surfaces · packed gravel |
| T Lug | Mixed terrain · compact machine applications · on/off road · versatile grip |
| L Lug | Mixed terrain · compact machines · aggressive grip · soft ground |
| C-Lug | Mixed terrain · grading · site work · on/off road · concrete & dirt |
| Turf ✔ | Lawns · landscaping · minimal ground disturbance |
Non-marking white rubber also available. See non-marking options →
The Turf pattern is purpose-built for operators working on finished lawns, golf courses, sports fields, or any surface where ground disturbance must be minimized. The low-profile tread reduces turf tear during turns and leaves a lighter footprint than any lug or bar pattern. Not designed for aggressive digging or muddy conditions. See all available patterns at the bottom of this page.
Know Your Machine: Bobcat MT100 Undercarriage Facts
The MT100 is Bobcat's largest mini track loader — delivering a 1,000 lb rated operating capacity in a compact, stand-on package just 35.6 inches wide. At 3,390 lbs with 5.25 psi ground pressure, it handles real production work while still fitting through gates and doorways. The 230mm wide track option adds stability and reduces ground disturbance on soft or finished surfaces. 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 | Wear-resistant · premium bonding agent | Protects cords from moisture · bonds all layers · absorbs impact on hard surfaces |
| Turf Tread | Low-profile tread for minimal ground disturbance | Reduces turf damage. Lightest footprint of any pattern. |
| Lug Height | ~1" nominal new depth | Replace when worn below ⅓ remaining — traction loss accelerates past that point |
Is It Time to Replace Your MT100'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 3,390 lbs operating weight the MT100 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.
Track Dimensions
| Size | Width | Pitch | Links | SKU |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 180mm Width (180×72×45) | 180mm (7.1") | 72mm | 45 | 180x72x45T-BTMT100 |
| 230mm Width (230×72×45) | 230mm (9.1") | 72mm | 45 | 230x72x45T-BTMT100 |
