278-2360 Sprocket Segment — Cat D5KXL D5KLGP

This is a sprocket segment, a wear component that forms part of the drive sprocket assembly on crawler equipment, providing teeth for the track chain to engage. It is manufactured from hardened steel to resist abrasion and impact, ensuring positive traction and efficient power transfer unlike a worn segment with rounded or broken teeth. Operators will notice excessive track slack, noisy track operation, or the track "throwing" off the sprocket when this part is worn or damaged.

Installation & Application Notes

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.

Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.

Failure Symptoms

Early signs of worn sprocket segments include increased noise from the undercarriage and a tendency for the track to become loose or "jump" teeth. If ignored, the track can derail, causing significant downtime and potential damage to other undercarriage components. Continued operation risks uneven wear across the entire drive system.

Installation Tip

Ensure the mating surfaces of the sprocket hub and the new segments are clean and free of rust before assembly. Do not attempt to reuse old bolts; always use new, high-strength hardware with the correct torque specifications.

Service Note

Inspect the track chains and rollers for wear and damage, and check the final drive oil level and condition when replacing sprocket segments.
