333-0960 Nylon Motor Grader Wear Strip – Aftermarket Replacement for Caterpillar® Equipment

The 333-0960 motor grader wear strip is a replaceable wear component designed for the circle and drawbar wear interface on selected Caterpillar® motor graders.

Its molded, heat-stabilized nylon construction helps separate mating grader components and reduce direct metal-to-metal contact during circle movement and blade positioning. Composite wear strips are less sensitive to insufficient lubrication than traditional metallic strips; however, lubrication and maintenance must always follow the equipment manufacturer’s recommendations.

This aftermarket replacement is intended for maintenance, repair and fleet stocking applications. Compatibility varies by machine configuration, serial number and installation position. Buyers should provide the complete machine model, serial number and existing part number before order confirmation.

Reference number 128-9656 is frequently reported by aftermarket catalogs as a legacy cross-reference, but the replacement relationship should be verified against the applicable parts diagram before purchase.
