Robust 1100840 steering tie rod manufactured by the renowned brand TORS. This is a key steering component, dedicated to Caterpillar (CAT) backhoe loaders, mainly from the C series and selected B and D models. It features a specific total length of 527 mm and a reinforced tube with a diameter of 40 mm, ensuring high resistance to mechanical damage.
TORS products guarantee reliability in steering systems. The use of thickened profiles and precise CNC machining of the ends ensures safe handling and long service life even in difficult construction terrain.
| Machine Type | Models |
|---|---|
| Backhoe Loaders | 416C, 426B, 426C, 428C, 436B, 436C, 438B, 438C, 438D, 442D |
The model list is for reference. CAT machines use various rod lengths. It is essential to verify the 527 mm dimension.
For proper rod installation, castle nuts and cotter pins (or self-locking nuts) are necessary to secure the ball joints. It is also worth checking the condition of the steering cylinder seals.
Operating a machine with play in the steering rods leads to loss of handling precision and wheel wandering, which is extremely dangerous when driving on public roads.
Rod 1100840 transfers force from the hydraulic cylinder to the wheel knuckle, enabling machine maneuvering.

In older CAT models (B, C series), rods were often symmetrical, but this should be verified. In newer machines, left and right rods differ.
It is a reinforced (Heavy Duty) version. The thicker tube provides greater rigidity and resistance to bending in rough terrain.
