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 |
| Q-Tread | Multi-directional traction · good all-around performance |
| 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 |
Non-marking white rubber also available. See non-marking options →
The Split Bar pattern is engineered for operators who need reliable traction in both forward and reverse. The split design flexes more than a solid bar, improving ground contact and absorbing vibration on uneven terrain. A good middle ground between the smooth ride of a bar pattern and the grip of a lug pattern. See all available patterns at the bottom of this page.
Know Your Machine: Bobcat T300 Undercarriage Facts
The T300 is a large-frame Bobcat CTL with a 3,000 lb rated operating capacity — one of the highest in the Bobcat lineup. Available in 400mm (15.7") or 450mm (17.7") track widths, the T300 starts at 4.2 psi ground pressure on the 450mm standard track. At 9,702 lbs, it's a serious production machine for earthmoving, loading, and demolition work. 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 |
| Split Bar Tread | Split bar flexes for better ground contact | Equal traction forward and reverse. Absorbs shock and vibration. |
| Lug Height | ~1" nominal new depth | Replace when worn below ⅓ remaining — traction loss accelerates past that point |
Is It Time to Replace Your T300'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 9,702 lbs operating weight the T300 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.
