Cat® Undercarriage
LOWER COST. LONGER LIFE.
Undercarriage typically represents an average 50% of a machine’s owning and operating costs, so it makes sense to invest in a system that will deliver the most value. Every Cat® undercarriage is designed by Caterpillar engineers and built to exacting specifications to match your machine and application — and deliver the lowest operating costs.
