Doosan DX60-7 Top Roller / Carrier Roller 2270-1134 – Premium Undercarriage Component

Description

The Doosan DX60-7 Top Roller, part number 2270-1134, also widely known as an upper roller or carrier roller, is an essential component of your mini excavator’s undercarriage system. Strategically positioned on the upper side of the track frame, its primary function is to support the weight of the track chain, preventing excessive sag between the idler and sprocket. This ensures the track maintains proper tension and alignment, allowing it to glide smoothly and efficiently, thereby reducing friction and wear on other costly undercarriage parts such as track links and idlers. This top roller is specifically compatible with Doosan DX60-R, DX63-3, and DH60 series mini excavators, confirming its direct suitability for your DX60-7 model. It also serves as a direct replacement for Bobcat OEM part number 7004843, used on Bobcat E60, E62, and E63 excavators.

Manufactured to stringent OEM standards, this top roller is typically constructed from high-strength, heat-treated alloy steel to ensure maximum durability and exceptional resistance to wear and impact. Its robust design, weighing approximately 9-11 kg, is built to withstand the continuous stress of supporting the track and the impacts from uneven terrain. The roller features sealed shaft and bearings, which are pre-lubricated (often oil-filled) and protected by heavy-duty seals. This sealed-for-life design prevents the ingress of abrasive contaminants like dirt, mud, and water, which are common in excavation environments. This critical sealing mechanism ensures smooth, low-friction rotation and significantly extends the component’s operational lifespan by keeping internal parts clean and well-lubricated, reducing the need for frequent maintenance.

A worn or failing top roller can lead to several operational issues, including excessive track slack, increased vibration, accelerated wear on track links, and potential de-tracking. These issues compromise machine stability, reduce operational efficiency, and can result in significant repair costs and unplanned downtime. Replacing a faulty top roller with a high-quality, OEM-standard part like the 2270-1134 is vital for maintaining the integrity of your undercarriage system, ensuring consistent machine performance, and protecting your investment. This carrier roller is an indispensable replacement for routine maintenance or when addressing specific issues related to track support and guidance.
