It has been exported in large quantities to Africa, Southeast Asia, Central Asia and Latin America, recognized for strong power, low maintenance cost and long service life.
2. Core Advantages
1. Strong & Fuel-Efficient Powertrain
Optional Weichai WP10/WP12/MC series diesel engines, power range 371HP–430HP, peak torque up to 2100N·m. Optimized combustion system reduces fuel consumption under full-load operation, cutting long-term operation expenses. Emission standards cover Euro II / Euro V / Euro VI to meet different regional market requirements.
2. Super Heavy-Duty Carrying Structure
Double-layer reinforced 300mm high-strength frame, all cold riveted cross beams for anti-torsion and anti-impact. Dual 16-ton heavy-duty rear drive axles with inter-wheel & inter-axle differential lock, powerful traction on muddy, gravel and rough mountain roads. Heavy-duty multi-leaf spring suspension provides stable bearing capacity and shock absorption for full-load bumpy driving.
3. Reliable Drivetrain & Easy Maintenance
Matched with HW19710 (10 forward+2 reverse) or HW25712 (12-speed) full synchronizer manual transmission, equipped with standard PTO for tipper/mixer upper body hydraulic power output. 430mm large-diameter diaphragm clutch bears frequent heavy-load start-stop. Modular engine and axle design simplify daily repair and spare parts replacement, lowering downtime.
4. Safe & Comfortable TX Series Cab
TX-F single sleeper cab (TX-M day cab optional), passing strict European crash safety standards. Collapsible energy-absorbing steering column, dual-circuit air brake + spring emergency parking brake improve driving safety. Interior fitted with multi-function steering wheel, cruise control, automatic air conditioning, adjustable air suspension seat and large sleeping berth, effectively easing long-distance driving fatigue.
5. Flexible Customization Capacity
Chassis supports multiple upper body refits: 20–35m³ dump cargo box, 10–12m³ concrete mixer tank, flat cargo body. Tire specifications (12.00R20 / 12R22.5), fuel tank volume (400L/500L), rear axle speed ratio and vehicle color can be adjusted per customer demand.
