Cat 776 + MET-185 heavy mining flatbed trailer

The Machine:
The Caterpillar 776 off-highway tractor provides dependable power to haul large loads in rugged hauling conditions. Mated with the Mega MET-185 equipment trailer capable of transporting up to 185 tons, this combination is the ideal solution for moving big equipment in mining and construction environments. With the Cat D348 diesel engine delivering 870 horsepower, the 776 can haul loads at a top speed of 38 mph. The frame-mounted, yoke-type hitch with a kingpin base allows two-way oscillation, helping to relieve stresses to the hitch area over uneven ground. The 776 also features completely sealed oil-cooled disk brakes, seven-speed automatic transmission, and all steel ROPS (Rollover Protective Structure) sound-suppressed cab.

The Model:
As a CCM precision scale die-cast model, all the usual details are in effect. This includes opening doors with a complete cab interior, working kingpin hitch, a fully-represented engine and drivetrain, and pivoting steering linkage and front wheels. The massive MET-185 is detachable from 776 tractor. Painted in authentic period Caterpillar yellow and featuring accurate markings.
