Abstract
An elastic-bodied crawler, in which damages, such as local wear, coming-off of driven projections and the like in use, are prevented from being brought about, and frictional resistance is decreased at engaging portions to provide for durability, comprises a body with a reinforcement layer of reinforcement cables embedded therein circumferentially, driven projections provided in a predetermined pitch on an inner peripheral surface of the body, lug portions formed on an outer surface of the body, and reinforcement members (driven projection reinforcement cables) embedded to bridge the driven projections and the body.
