Prowlers excavator rubber track systems have been rigorously tested before being introduced to our clients, meeting or exceeding OEM specifications for a perfect fit and maximum performance every time. To improve on our tracks dependability and durability, they undergo extensive research and design tests to ensure the compounds and materials used during production meet or exceed ISO quality standards. Here are just a few features you will find in every premium grade track we sell.

• A: Deep tread lugs provide excellent traction for multiple applications including mud, dirt, sand, clay, gravel and asphalt.
• B: Heavy duty steel links provide a smooth rolling path for your excavators undercarriage rollers, and maximizes strength.
• C: A thick carcass made of all natural rubber, carbon black, and the industry leading synthetics provide reliable heat, chunk, and gouge resistants.
• D: Continuously wound steel cables, protected by a thick layer of vulcanized rubber.

In our industry, you'll find that there are essentially two rubber track options available to you, and they are:

• Standard Grade (Budget Brands)
• Premium Grade (Prowler ™)

A premium grade rubber track is made of all natural rubber compounds that are blended with highly durable synthetics. A high volume of carbon black make premium tracks more heat and gouge resistant, increasing their overall service life when operating on hard abrasive surfaces. Prowler premium tracks also use continuously wound steel cables embedded deep within the thick carcass to build strength and rigidity. Additionally, our steel cables receive a coat of vulcanized wrapped rubber to help protect them from deep gouges and moisture that could corrode them if not protected.

On the other hand, standard grade tracks use lower amounts of carbon black and higher amounts of synthetics making them less heat and gouge resistant. Standard grade tracks also use spliced or overlapped cables that are known to be weaker than continuously wound cables. These same manufactures generally do not coat the inner cords in vulcanized rubber either. All these differences help keep their production cost down, but won’t provide the same service and protection that a premium grade track would.

Prowler is a Premium Grade Track System, and we utilize a unique manufacturing technique called FST (Flexural Strength Technology) that stands us apart from our closest competitors. The result of FST is a track that has an abrasion resistant outer track circumference and a more flexible, yet resilient inner track circumference. This creates a track that can flex more freely while engaging your undercarriage components, and still maintain its abrasion and gouge resistance as you crawl over hazardous debris.
