Designed for Compact Track Loaders (CTL)

The distinct design of the C Block profile is highly effective for surfaces that are densely packed, like concrete, gravel, and wet sand. Great for compact track loaders and hard surfaces.

The Purpose Built CTL Tread For Firm Packed Surfaces

The C Block tread profile is one of the most proven tread designs for compact track loaders — and for good reason. Its reinforced block lug pattern is purpose-built for densely packed, hard surfaces: concrete, compacted gravel, and wet sand. The C Block's distinct tread geometry distributes the machine's weight evenly across the contact patch, delivering stable, predictable traction while minimizing surface damage on the ground below. It's a workhorse pattern suited to contractors who run their CTL on consistent, hard-surface conditions day in and day out.

Where the C Block stands out from a straight block pattern is the sideways C-shaped cutout in each lug — a design detail that adds traction edge without sacrificing the durability and impact resistance that block-style treads are known for. The result is a track that holds up on abrasive surfaces while still offering more grip than a fully flat block when conditions get mixed.

The C Block Tread Profile works best for:

  • CTLs operating primarily on concrete, packed gravel, hardpack, or wet sand
  • General construction and site work where hard surfaces are the norm
  • Operators who want block-lug durability with slightly more traction edge than a plain block pattern
  • Machines transitioning between paved and compacted job site ground

You may want to consider a different profile if:

  • Your machine works through Canadian winters in snow and packed ice — the BZ profile's deep lug and debris-clearing design handles that better
  • Your work is split more heavily between highway travel and rough off-road conditions — the BL profile may be a closer fit for that combination
  • You need aggressive traction in mud or very soft ground — neither the C Block nor BL are optimized for that


C Block tracks are sized in Width x Pitch x Links format. Width, pitch, and link count must all match your machine's undercarriage exactly — getting any one of the three wrong can cause fitment issues or accelerated wear. Use the track finder above or contact us to confirm the right size before ordering.

Sizing

Rubber track sizes are determined using a specific format:

(Width x Pitch x Number of Links)

1. Width: This is the measurement of the track’s width in millimetres. In the example 230 x 72 x 43, the width is 230 mm.

2. Pitch: This is the distance between the centres of two consecutive links in millimetres. This measurement is essential for compatibility with the sprockets that drive the track. In the example above, the pitch length is 72 mm.

3. Number of Links: This refers to the total number of drive lugs or links around the entire track. Counting these links ensures you get the correct length of track for your equipment. In the example above there are 43 links.

• Pictures of the defective part.
It is not necessary to send defective product back to us unless otherwise directed

Core Structure

Forged Metal Cores
The metal cores created from forged steel (not cast), guarantee solid performance of the metal core. Special adhesive treatment is used to firmly bond the metal core to the rubber. More weight doesn’t mean a better rubber track. The weight most likely comes from very heavy-cast metal cores. The forgings we use, allow less overall weight and increase fuel economy.

Rubber Compound
Merging natural and synthetic rubber produce superior rubber tracks. Natural rubber compounds provide flexibility and strength. Whereas synthetic rubber adds reliability through thermal stability and resistance to oils. It’s an ideal blend, that is good for its anti-abrasive properties as well as flexible weather capabilities.

Steel Cords
Our rubber tracks use continuous high-strength steel cords, making a robust structure. Special consideration is paid to both the machine and load weight, when calculating the number of steel cords in the core.
