3330960 Strip Wear for CAT 120G, 130G, 135G & more

A: The 3330960 wear strip is a sacrificial component used in Caterpillar equipment to protect structural surfaces from wear and abrasion during operation. These strips absorb friction and impact so that the primary structure remains undamaged, reducing overall maintenance costs.

A: Inspect wear strips regularly. Replace when you see: the strip worn down to or near the wear indicator depth, cracks or fractures in the strip, or when the underlying structure begins to show wear. Proactive replacement prevents costly structural repairs.

A: This strip is designed for specific Caterpillar equipment applications. Check your parts manual or reach out to Propel Parts for help verifying fitment with your machine model and serial number.

A: Yes. This is a premium high-quality aftermarket wear strip manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications for material hardness, dimensions, and wear resistance.

A: Wear strips are typically bolted or welded in place depending on the design. Remove the old worn strip, clean and inspect the mating surface, then install the new strip according to your Caterpillar service documentation. Ensure all fasteners are torqued to specification.

A: It is generally best practice to replace wear strips as a set on any given assembly to ensure even wear distribution. Mixing new and heavily worn strips can result in uneven loading and faster wear on the new components.
