5 Advantages of Bobcat Solid Mount and Roller Suspension Undercarriages

Published on October 1, 2019

A lot is riding on your compact track loader’s undercarriage, including operator comfort, ground clearance and machine durability. That’s why Bobcat is always refining and advancing our undercarriage design. Solid-mount and optional Roller Suspension system undercarriages (available on select Bobcat compact track loader models) provide Bobcat undercarriages five significant advantages on the jobsite.

1. Durable undercarriage components

Bobcat drive motors and hydraulic hoses are solid-mounted, unlike other brands’ compact track loader suspension systems. This design helps protect hoses from snags, vibrations, rubbing and debris while you work. Tough forged steel rollers and idlers provide a smooth ride without using weak plastics or rubber, meaning the machine is less prone to downtime and will require less maintenance.
