Dongfeng 6x4 12 t Octagonal Straight Boom Crane Truck

This Dongfeng 6x4 crane truck targets construction material suppliers, steel fabricators and port operators who need a 12 t class crane but do not require a four-axle chassis. Its SQS300-5 crane has a five-section octagonal straight boom rated for a maximum lift of 12,000 kg, including the hook of about 160 kg, with a 300 kN·m lifting moment. The maximum outreach is 18.1 m and the maximum lifting height is 22 m, with 360° slewing and a 75° top boom angle. As the boom extends, permitted loads drop sharply, so each lift should be checked on the load chart.

Built on the EQ1250GL6DJ chassis with a 5,850 + 1,350 mm wheelbase, the truck has a 25,000 kg gross vehicle weight, a 17,000 kg curb weight and a 7,870 kg rated payload. A Yuchai YCS06270-60 Euro 6 diesel supplies 200 kW (270 hp) through a 10-speed transmission. The 5 t front axle and two 10 t rear axles ride on leaf springs and ten 11.00R20 tires. The crane is run from an elevated seat and supported by double-chamber H-type hydraulic outriggers. The 8,500 × 2,450 × 600 mm dropside box can be customized.

Suitable work includes delivering rebar, pipe and precast parts, handling machinery and containers in ports and yards, and supporting steel structure erection where a long bed and high hook height are both useful.
