Durability for your toughest loading conditions
Cat Large Wheel Loaders are designed with durability built in, ensuring maximum availability through multiple life cycles. With optimized performance and simplified serviceability, our machines allow you to move more material efficiently and safely at a lower cost per ton.
The new 986K continues the legacy of durability, performance, safety, operator comfort, serviceability and sustainability.
Robust Structures
Your bottom line is improved by highly durable structures that achieve multiple life cycles and withstand the toughest loading conditions.
Full box-section rear frame resists torsional shock and twisting forces.
Heavy-duty steering cylinder mounts efficiently transmit loads into the frame.
Cast axle pivot mounting areas better disperse stress loads for increased structural integrity.
Lift Arms
Your key to maximum uptime and productivity is our field-proven lift arms.
Excellent visibility to the bucket edges and work area through a Z-bar design.
High load stresses are absorbed by the solid steel lift arms.
Enhance strength in key pin areas through the use of one-piece castings.
Front Linkage
To ensure long life and reliability, the linkage pin joints feature a greased pin design with an optional auto-lube system.
