A machine includes a bolt together track having sets of straight track links positioned in parallel and coupled via at least one pin. Retainer assemblies for the first and second sets of track links include at least one keeper engageable with the at least one pin and a keeper retainer configured to rotationally interlock with the track segment via threads, to inhibit disassembly of the keepers from the at least one pin. An assembly method for a machine track segment includes positioning first and second sets of track links on at least one pin, installing keepers on the at least one pin and inhibiting disassembly of the links by interlocking keeper retainers with the machine track segment, for instance rotationally interlocking the keeper retainers via external threads with threaded bores in the track links.
