Features & Information

Emissions Technology. The Cat C7.1 ACERT engine meets EPA Tier 4 Final/ EU Stage IV emission standards.
Performance. The PANTHER T12 features an uphill & downhill gradeability of 60% (31º), sidehill gradeability of 40% (21.8º), and a maximum speed of 8.4 mph (13.5 km/h). Pavement-friendly rubber tracks and remarkable speed make the PANTHER highly mobile. Numerous blocks provide bite into the ground while angular cuts and “zig-zag” tread provide side-hill grip. Dynamic track tension gives you proper tension while working. Large wheels give more contact with the ground and more stability.
Versatility and more. PLM makes the PANTHER T12 available in four configurations: flat bed with crane, a tilting flat bed, a dump box, and the WELD DECK with auto tie-in crane. See additional information below. Together with a ground pressure of 6.20 psi and a strong pull ratio, these features allow this carrier crawler to access your pipeline construction site, even if the terrain is difficult, without damage to the environment.
