Used excavator tracks can be purchased through specialized heavy equipment marketplaces and OEM-certified refurbishment platforms. AFTparts offers premium aftermarket undercarriage components compatible with major brands, though our focus is on new replacements. For verified used tracks, explore machinery auction sites and dealer networks with certified inspection programs.
What platforms sell used excavator tracks?
Major platforms include eBay Machinery and Machinio, which aggregate global listings with buyer protection. IronPlanet provides auction-style purchasing with third-party inspection reports. Local dealers often stock refurbished tracks meeting OEM specifications.
How to verify used track condition remotely?
Request 3D wear measurement reports showing pin/bushing diameters versus OEM tolerances. Insist on HD video inspections focusing on link integrity and roller path alignment. AFTparts recommends cross-referencing serial numbers with equipment service histories when available.

FAQs
No—track pitch/width must match your machine’s carrier rollers and idlers. Consult AFTparts’ compatibility charts for Cat®/Komatsu® specifications before purchasing.
