Undercarriage parts

Heavy duty, sealed & lubricated track chains have been specifically designed for increased pin & bushing retention. Track link incorporates greater pin-to-link and bushing-to-link contact areas while additional link wear material increases component life. Heavy duty chains are also available in the version with Extreme Wear Resistance Bushings for maximum life in high abrasion environment. Exclusive heat treatment gives links consistent surface hardness, superior hardened depth and strong core hardness. Pins & bushings are dimensionally matched to the links and manufactured to provide excellent track joint reliability, while the design ensures maximum sealability. All this results in excellent wear resistance, strength and durability for superior sealability and longer life. Heavy duty track chains work best in moderate to high impact conditions, logging, reforestation, side sloping and for uneven terrain. Heavy duty track chains with Extreme Wear Resistance Bushings, work best in high abrasion/low impact application.

• Heavy Duty Chains version with Extreme Wear Resistance Bushings available as an option.
• For track-type machines ranging in class from D4H-HD to D7H-HD.
• Suitable for XR, XL, LGP and TSK undercarriages.
• Ultra low temperature (-50° C) version available.
• Greater pin-to-link and bushing-to-link contact areas for increased pin retention.
• Higher track link provide additional wear material.
• Track links are forged from deep hardening low alloyed boron steels with certified hardenability.
• Links are quenched & tempered for tough and strong core hardness, superior strength and higher pin & bushing retention.
• Rail surface induction hardened (HRC 53) to the wear limit (HRC>45).
• Final furnace tempering reduces link chipping and spalling.
• Bushing are treated in a special furnace for high temperature carburizing.
• Pins are deep hardened for best resistance to wear and fatigue.

Berco lubricated track chains

The lubricated chains are a product of a prolonged test period both at the factory and in actual working conditions. The chain is a technically superior product. Special production machines have been developed to mass produce the chain components. Each component is passed through special cleaning machines which remove foreign material that remain on the parts, after cleaning parts are assembled on track presses which have been engineered for accurate assembly. Vacuum testing and the injection of oil into the lubricated track joints is performed by a special machine. Master split link is an important part of the lubricated chain. WWhen we using the lubricated chain there is no wear between the pin and bush. The pitch extension caused by internal wear on standard chains is eliminated and results in longer life for all matching components, especially segment and sprocket teeth. Bushing which have an increased thickness and no internal wear last much longer; the life of pins is for all practical purposes unlimited.
With Berco lubricated chains the friction normally associated with the chains is greatly reduced allowing more effective use of the engine power, quieter operation and improved operative comfort..

In rubberizing the steel pads, it has extended the rubber to the side webs as to widen the rubber track surface and the rubber surface joining the steel parts. A special mixture of scoring and splitting resistance rubbers together with the rubber thickness make the rubber pad long-life even for heavy duty. There is two kinds of pads: one with three-webs rubberized steel slats and the other consisting of a rubberised, U-shaped steel structure for comparatively small machines.

Il sovrapattino in gomma è stato studiato e messo a punto per macchine cingolate, che vengono impiegate su strade asfaltate, o cementate e su pavimentazioni di ogni genere.
Al vantaggio di non danneggiare qualsiasi tipo di pavimentazione, si associa una rapidità e facilità di montaggio che rendono il sovrapattino in gomma utilissimo anche per brevi impieghi.
Montaggio: il sovrapattino viene montato sul pattino inserendolo su di esso; dalla parte interna del pattino viene trattenuto dalla staffa interna fissa e viene serrato al pattino con la staffa esterna mobile che viene fissata con due viti.
Robustezza: la struttura metallica è in lamiera d’acciaio elettrosaldato avente spessore di 8 mm. La staffa esterna mobile è realizzata in modo da poter alloggiare le due viti di bloccaggio proteggendole dagli urti laterali.
Il battistrada in gomma di grande sezione e l’impiego di una speciale mescola di gomma d’alta resistenza all’abrasione ed alla lacerazione, ne conferiscono sicurezza d’impiego, buona aderenza e ottima durata anche in lavori gravosi
