Premium Performance Used CAT 980H Wheel Loader 318HP Turbocharged 5.0 Cubic

Used CAT 980H 5.0m³ Wheel Loader – Heavy Heavy Equipment Solution

We are offering this Used CAT 980H 5.0m³ Wheel Loader in verified working condition with documented service history. The CAT 980H is an Heavy wheel loader model recognized globally for its balance of productive capacity, fuel efficiency, and operational reliability. This unit has completed our comprehensive pre-delivery inspection covering engine performance, hydraulic system integrity, drivetrain evaluation, and structural assessment to confirm readiness for immediate deployment on your job site.

Engine and Powertrain Performance

This CAT 980H is powered by a turbocharged diesel engine delivering 318HP 237kW net output, providing strong breakout force and rapid hydraulic cycle times for productive truck loading and material handling operations. The engine features an efficient fuel injection system and robust cooling package designed for continuous operation in demanding construction and quarry environments. The powershift transmission delivers smooth directional changes and optimal gear selection for varying load conditions, with a modulated clutch engagement that protects drivetrain components from shock loading during aggressive operation.

Loader Linkage and Hydraulic System

The CAT 980H features a Z-bar loader linkage that generates high breakout force for penetrating compacted stockpiles and digging in hard bank materials. The 5.0 m³ general-purpose bucket is constructed from abrasion-resistant steel plate with a bolt-on cutting edge and weld-on wear plates in high-wear areas. The hydraulic system utilizes a variable-displacement piston pump with load-sensing control, delivering hydraulic flow precisely matched to implement demand for fast cycle times and reduced fuel consumption during partial load operations.

Structural Integrity and Undercarriage

The articulated frame design provides ±35-degree steering articulation for maneuverability in confined loading areas. The front and rear frames are fabricated from high-tensile steel with full-penetration welds at all structural joints. The articulation joint features a hardened pivot pin with replaceable bushings designed for extended service life under constant articulation cycling. Four-wheel drive with limited-slip differentials delivers maximum tractive effort for stockpile climbing and soft ground operation.

Operator Cabin and Controls

The ROPS/FOPS-certified operator cabin provides a comfortable and productive working environment with excellent visibility to the bucket and work area. Features include an air-suspension operator seat, ergonomic joystick controls, automatic climate control, and a multi-function instrument display monitoring critical machine parameters.
