Caterpillar 160M Grader

Equipped with a Cat C9 ACERT VHP inline six-cylinder engine rated at 290 HP (213 kW), the C9 offers ample power to easily handle demanding applications such as heavy-duty grading and roadbed finishing. The engine utilizes ACERT technology for efficient fuel consumption, and its load-sensing hydraulic system intelligently adjusts power output based on the load, ensuring efficiency while minimizing inefficient energy consumption. A blade width of 4,300 mm and a maximum digging depth of 750 mm enable a wide coverage area in a single operation, significantly outperforming competitors in its class in both dozing and grading efficiency.

Precise and comfortable operation: The Proportional Priority Pressure Compensation (PPPC) hydraulic system provides responsive and precise blade lift, tilt, and sideshift control, ensuring precise operation and meeting precise road surface and slope requirements. The cab features a ROPS/FOPS safety structure, offers spacious interior space, and an optional air suspension seat and automatic air conditioning, effectively reducing operating noise and vibration. The instrument panel is clearly laid out, providing easy access to key data. The user-friendly joystick design significantly reduces operator fatigue after extended work.

Durable and easy-to-maintain: The chassis utilizes a high-strength welded alloy steel structure. Key load-bearing components, such as the frame and swing plate, are reinforced for high impact and deformation resistance, meeting the rigorous demands of operating in complex terrain. Wear-resistant materials are used in vulnerable areas, such as the track undercarriage and blade connection, ensuring a long service life. Centralized and strategically located maintenance points allow for easy replacement of wear parts, such as the oil and fuel filter. Select models are equipped with the Cat Electronic Diagnostic System, which monitors equipment status in real time, provides early warning of faults, and reduces maintenance downtime.

Highly adaptable and safe, the machine supports a wide range of attachment options. In addition to the standard leveling blade, it can also be equipped with a ripper, snow pusher, and other accessories to meet the diverse needs of mining, road, and agricultural applications. The equipment comes standard with a dual-circuit braking system, which provides reliable braking performance. Combined with the ground-based emergency stop switch and the cab's FOPS/ROP protection structure, it provides all-round safety protection for the operator.
