CAT D 8

The CAT D8 is a classic 39-ton heavy-duty crawler dozer from Caterpillar. Its Tier 3 version is equipped with a C15 engine that requires no urea aftertreatment. It features high fuel tolerance and suits overseas markets with average fuel quality such as Africa, Southeast Asia and Latin America. It comes with Caterpillar’s fully automatic 4-speed power-shift transmission, delivering powerful drawbar pull and excellent dozing and stripping performance. It is fitted with a standard SU semi-universal blade, and a single-shank ripper is available as an option. It is widely used for mine stripping, large-site grading, subgrade filling, spoil piling, tailings management, quarry work and large land-clearing projects. It has a ROPS/FOPS protective cab with excellent visibility. The cooling system is optimized for tropical working conditions. The main frame, tracks and final drives are reinforced, adopting Caterpillar’s durable original drivetrain.
