Types of dozer tracks: Lubricated Chains vs. Dry Chains

We produce two types of dozer tracks: lubricated chains and dry chains. Each type of chain is suited to different needs, and each has its unique advantages and disadvantages, which should be considered based on actual requirements.

Advantages of Lubricated Chains:

Good Lubrication: Lubricated chains have a certain amount of oil inside the pins, providing continuous lubrication and reducing wear.

High Durability: Sealed chains have longer maintenance intervals and better durability, capable of withstanding higher torque and tensile strength.

Reduced Noise: The presence of rubber sealing rings inside the lubricated chain effectively reduces noise.

Disadvantages of Lubricated Chains:

Higher Cost: Sealed chains are relatively more expensive.

Greater Operating Resistance: The internal oil increases operating resistance, making them unsuitable for low-displacement models.

Advantages of Dry Chains:

Lower Cost: Dry chains are relatively inexpensive, making them suitable for budget-conscious situations.

Simple Maintenance: Dry chains do not require a complex lubrication system, making maintenance relatively straightforward.

Disadvantages of Dry Chains:

Poor Lubrication: Dry chains lack internal grease, resulting in poor lubrication and increased wear.

Shorter Lifespan: Due to the lack of effective lubrication, dry chains have a relatively shorter service life.

How to Choose Between Lubricated and Dry Chains Based on Actual Needs:

Operating Environment: If the working environment is harsh, with a lot of dust and high humidity, it is advisable to choose lubricated chains, as they provide better lubrication and protection for the chains.

Budget Considerations: If the budget is limited, dry chains can be chosen. While they are easier to maintain, they require regular inspection and replacement.

Machine Usage: For bulldozers that need to operate under high intensity for extended periods, lubricated chains are recommended due to their higher durability and tensile strength.

Choosing between lubricated and dry chains requires a comprehensive consideration of the operating environment, budget, and specific machine usage. We hope this information helps you make the right choice.
