Crawler Track 35HP Palm Oil Tractor 300mm Rubber Track for Muddy Wetland Plantation Operations
Crawler Track 35HP Palm Oil Tractor with 300mm Rubber Track
The WORLD WEA-C3500 Crawler Track Palm Oil Tractor is engineered specifically for muddy, waterlogged, and soft-terrain palm oil plantations where wheeled tractors struggle. With 300mm rubber crawler tracks delivering just 18kPa ground pressure, this 22HP machine floats across soft ground without sinking or creating deep ruts.
Key Features
- 300mm Rubber Crawler Track System: Wide rubber tracks distribute machine weight evenly, achieving ultra-low 18kPa ground pressure for operation on peat soil and waterlogged terrain common in Southeast Asian plantations
- 22HP Changchai Diesel Engine: Reliable air-cooled diesel engine optimized for low-speed high-torque operation, ideal for sustained work in challenging ground conditions
- Articulated Steering: Articulated frame design provides excellent maneuverability between palm rows with a tight turning radius, minimizing crop damage
- 1.5m³ Standard Dumper: Hydraulic dump bed for transporting harvested palm fruit bunches, fertilizer bags, and plantation tools
- Minimal Ground Disturbance: Rubber tracks protect plantation soil structure and palm root systems compared to conventional tires
- 30° Gradeability: Superior climbing and slope operation capability on hilly plantation terrain
- Low Maintenance Design: Sealed track rollers and idlers with automatic tensioning system reduce daily maintenance requirements

FAQ
Q1: How do rubber tracks compare to tires on soft ground?
A1: The 500mm rubber tracks reduce ground pressure to just 18kPa compared to 80-120kPa for standard tires. This means the tractor floats on soft peat and mud instead of sinking, enabling year-round operation.
Q2: What is the lifespan of the rubber tracks?
A2: Under normal palm oil plantation conditions, rubber tracks typically last 2000-3000 operating hours. Replacement tracks are readily available as spare parts.
Q3: Can the tractor be used with implements?
A3: Yes, the 540/720rpm rear PTO is compatible with standard agricultural implements. The rear 3-point hitch (Category 1) supports attachments like mowers, sprayers, and fertilizer spreaders.
Q4: Is maintenance complicated compared to wheeled tractors?
A4: The sealed track roller system with automatic tensioning requires only daily visual inspection and periodic greasing, comparable to wheeled tractor maintenance routines.
Q5: What is the minimum order quantity?
A5: Minimum order is 1 unit. We can supply single machines or entire plantation fleets with volume pricing available.
