CATERPILLAR 213 LC CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

Technical Description

The Caterpillar 213 LC is a compact hydraulic excavator engineered for versatile construction and demolition applications. Powered by a naturally aspirated 6.354.4P engine producing 102 horsepower at 2,150 RPM, this machine delivers robust performance in confined spaces and general excavation work. With an operating weight of 38,140 pounds and ground pressure of only 6.9 PSI, the 213 LC minimizes surface disturbance while maintaining excellent mobility across diverse terrain. The excavator features multiple boom and stick configurations to accommodate varying project requirements. Maximum digging depths range from 15.2 to 19.7 feet, with cutting heights reaching up to 29.2 feet and lateral reach extending to 30.1 feet, depending on the selected configuration. The bucket offers flexibility with capacity options from 0.4 to 1.2 cubic yards, allowing operators to optimize productivity for different material types. Dimensionally compact for transportation, the unit measures 27.2 to 27.4 feet in shipping length and 9.8 to 10.2 feet in height, with an overall width of 8.5 feet to the outside of tracks. The 51-shoe undercarriage per side with 19.7-inch shoes ensures superior traction and reduced ground pressure, critical for sensitive job sites. Engine specifications include an 8-gallon cooling system capacity and 52.9-gallon fuel tank, while the hydraulic system operates at 4,351.2 PSI relief pressure with a 45 GPM pump flow capacity. The swing mechanism rotates at 9.8 RPM, and maximum travel speed reaches 1.8 MPH. This machine delivers the durability and precision expected from Caterpillar, making it ideal for contractors requiring reliable performance in demanding conditions.
