CATERPILLAR 919 MOTOR GRADERS

Technical Description

The 2025 Caterpillar 919 Motor Grader is a mid-sized construction machine engineered for precision grading and road maintenance applications. Powered by a diesel engine producing 176–196 horsepower with 427.8 cubic inches of displacement operating at 2,250 rpm, this grader delivers robust performance across demanding jobsites. The machine features an operating weight of 33,188 lbs with a base configuration of 31,548 lbs, distributing load across a dual-axle setup with 8,834 lbs on the front and 22,714 lbs on the rear. Advanced steering capabilities include a 47.5° maximum front steering angle and 20° frame articulation, enabling precise maneuverability in confined spaces. The front axle accommodates 18° lean and 32° total oscillation for superior terrain adaptability. Equipped with load-sensing hydraulics providing 159 cc/rev steering capacity, the grader ensures consistent, predictable blade control regardless of operating conditions. Blade options include 12-foot or 14-foot configurations with standardized 24-inch heights and 7/8-inch thickness, allowing operators to select optimal widths for specific applications. The machine achieves a maximum speed of 14.9 mph and maintains 24 inches of ground clearance. ROPS-equipped variants add approximately 1,700 lbs to the total weight. All-wheel drive configurations increase operating weight to 41,230 lbs for enhanced traction on challenging terrain.
