A Hyundai R220 track shoe should be selected by matching the machine’s actual undercarriage configuration—not by model name alone. Before ordering, confirm the excavator’s serial number or exact variant, then compare the existing shoe’s width, track pitch, bolt-hole pattern, and mounting arrangement with the replacement specification. R220 machines may differ by generation, configuration, or previous undercarriage changes, so do not assume that a shoe described only as “R220” will fit every machine.

This guide explains what to check, how to measure a removed shoe, and what information to provide when requesting a quotation. Zhonghai Jiuchuan can review your measurements and machine details to help identify a suitable steel track shoe; final fitment should be confirmed against the actual machine and parts specification before purchase.
This guide is for fleet managers, maintenance teams, equipment dealers, and parts buyers sourcing replacement track shoes for a Hyundai R220 excavator. It is useful when the original part number is unavailable, when a machine has had undercarriage components replaced, or when comparing offers from different suppliers. It is also relevant if you are deciding whether to replace individual damaged shoes or renew a larger portion of the track chain.
The guidance is intended for sourcing and fitment checks, not as a substitute for the machine’s service documentation. If the excavator has a non-standard track group, modified chains, or an unclear maintenance history, confirm the configuration with a qualified technician before ordering. A physical inspection can prevent a mismatch that a model-name search alone may not reveal.
A track shoe is the ground-contact plate attached to the track chain. It supports the excavator on the ground and contributes to traction, flotation, and the machine’s interaction with the working surface. The shoe must match the chain’s mounting geometry; a visually similar plate may still be unsuitable if its bolt pattern, pitch relationship, or profile differs.
Track shoe selection involves more than width. The shoe’s mounting face and holes must align with the chain links, while its shape and material should suit the expected operating conditions. Check the complete shoe and chain interface rather than relying only on a product photograph or a general model description.
Measure the removed shoe with a suitable measuring tool and record each result in millimeters (mm). At minimum, note shoe width (mm), plate thickness (mm), and the relevant mounting dimensions, including bolt-hole diameter (mm) and hole-center spacing (mm). Also record the track pitch in millimeters (mm), using the chain or verified parts information because pitch is a chain dimension, not the shoe’s overall width.
| Check | What to record | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Machine identity | R220 variant and serial number | Helps distinguish configurations and verify the parts application. |
| Shoe dimensions | Width, length, and plate thickness in mm | Supports comparison with the existing shoe and supplier drawing. |
| Mounting pattern | Hole diameter and center spacing in mm; hole count | Confirms whether the shoe can align with the chain mounting points. |
| Track group | Pitch in mm and chain configuration, if known | Helps check compatibility with the complete undercarriage assembly. |
Measure an unworn or less-damaged shoe where possible, since wear, bending, and corrosion can affect readings. For improved confidence, compare more than one shoe from the same track and note any visible differences between the two sides. If the original dimensions cannot be established reliably, send clear photographs and the machine serial number to the supplier for review rather than estimating critical measurements.
Steel track shoes are available in different widths and ground-contact profiles. A narrower shoe may be appropriate where ground pressure and traction requirements differ from those of a wider shoe, but changing width can also affect flotation, turning behavior, and stress on the undercarriage. The correct choice depends on the machine configuration, ground conditions, and the shoe specification approved for that track group.
For firm or abrasive surfaces, consider how much ground contact and wear exposure the job creates. On softer ground, flotation may be an important selection factor, but a wider shoe should not be chosen without checking machine and chain compatibility. For mixed-site work, discuss the trade-offs with the equipment technician and supplier instead of assuming one profile is ideal for every surface.

Track shoes work as part of an assembly that includes the track chain, links, pins, bushings, rollers, idlers, and sprockets. A new shoe cannot correct wear or damage elsewhere in the track group, and a mismatch in mounting geometry can create installation problems. During replacement planning, inspect adjoining hardware and ask whether the chain’s condition supports fitting new shoes.
Also check whether the machine has matching shoes across both tracks and whether earlier repairs introduced a different pattern. A replacement should preserve the approved configuration unless a deliberate, technically reviewed change is planned. Keep photographs of both track groups and the shoe mounting surface with the purchase request.
When replacing only a limited number of shoes, check that the replacement profile matches the remaining shoes and that the chain is in suitable condition. When replacing a larger quantity, confirm the total count required for the intended scope and whether the order covers one track or both. Do not infer the required quantity from a generic online listing; count the installed components or verify the machine parts information.
Track shoe pricing depends on the confirmed specification, material and manufacturing requirements, order quantity, packaging, and delivery destination. Minimum order quantity (MOQ) and lead time are supplier- and order-specific, so they should be requested with the quotation rather than assumed from another product or previous purchase. Ask whether the quoted price includes the required fasteners, export packaging, and any agreed inspection or documentation.
For a useful comparison, provide all suppliers with the same machine details, dimensions, shoe profile, quantity, and destination. Request a written quotation that states the fitment basis, production or dispatch estimate, payment terms, and shipping arrangement. Zhonghai Jiuchuan can assess the supplied information and discuss available manufacturing or sourcing options; availability and timing should be confirmed for each order.
A dependable sourcing process starts with clear technical communication. Ask the supplier to state which dimensions or machine details were used to confirm the proposed shoe, and request a drawing or written specification when available. Check that the quotation describes the product, quantity, packaging, delivery terms, and any agreed inspection requirements clearly.
Before approving production or shipment, verify that the order documents match the confirmed specification. Share photographs or measurement records if a fitment detail is uncertain, and resolve differences before payment or dispatch. These steps reduce avoidable ordering risk without relying on unverified claims about service life or performance.
The right Hyundai R220 track shoe is the one that matches the machine’s actual track group, measured dimensions, and operating requirements. The model name is a useful starting point, but serial-number confirmation and checks of shoe width, pitch, thickness, and mounting geometry provide a stronger basis for fitment. Where measurements conflict or the undercarriage has been modified, pause and request technical review before ordering.
To request a quotation from Zhonghai Jiuchuan, prepare the R220 variant and serial number, the recorded dimensions in mm, clear photographs, required quantity, and delivery destination. We can review those details with you and confirm the proposed specification and commercial terms before you proceed.
