An endless articulated track (12) includes a series of incompressible transverse elements (40) held together bead-fashion in incompressible abutting relationship by at least one endless tensile core under tension. The transverse track elements are of taper section defined by taper sides which converge inwardly of the tensile core. - This permits resilient flexing of the track around a drive or guide wheel (14,16) adjacent the transverse track elements. The latter have pressure faces disposed outwardly of the tensile core. The pressure faces are adapted in use to abut against each other, to prevent excessive bending of the track under load. (Dwg.No.1) USAB- US4752105 A A of transverse tack elements are held together bead-fashion in abutting relationship under compression by tensile core elements under tension. The track elements are of taper section section defined by taper sides which converge inwardly of the tensile core to permit s flexing of the track member around a drive or guide wheel. - Adjacent transverse track elements have pressure faces outwardly of the tensile core element, and pressure faces being adapted in use to abut other, to limit reverse bending of the track member under load. The tensile core elements are in the form of endless steel wire ropes, accommodated in seats defined by resilient seat members. The track elements are made up of inner and outer parts. Clamp members are provided to clamp the inner and outer parts and their resilient seat members together, around the tensile core elements.
