The rubber tracks and low ground pressure (5.1 psi when fully loaded) allow the multi-purpose Terramac RT9 crawler carrier to cover a variety of ground and adverse weather conditions. The machine has been customized to fit more than 15 different industry specific applications to tackle a variety of jobs, including suppressing tailings dust on mines, holding welding equipment for oil and gas pipelines, and laying dirt in environmentally sensitive areas for general construction.
Made in North America, the RT9 can be ordered from the factory with the correct body configuration to accept custom accessories. Additional options for the RT9 include a back-up camera, bed lights, radio, flat bed, dump bed, track cleats and an engine filter kit.
