El Campionat del món de persecució per equips masculins és el campionat del món de Persecució per equips organitzat anualment per l'UCI, dins els Campionats del Món de Ciclisme en pista.
Es disputen des de 1962 en un principi en la modalitat amateur i a partir de 1993 amb equips professionals. Les edicions dels anys 1972, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988 i 1992 no es van diputar per coincidir amb els Jocs Olímpics. Així els campions olímpics tenien el dret de portar el mallot irisat de Campions del món.
