Equipment Overview
The CAT 735 is an articulated dump truck built for off-road hauling across broken, uneven ground, part of Caterpillar’s articulated truck range alongside the 725, 730, 740, and 745. It carries a 32-tonne rated payload and produces 325 kW of gross power, suited to quarrying, mining support, and civil earthworks where a rigid-frame truck struggles with traction or ground clearance.
Power comes from a Cat C13B engine rated at 325 kW (436 hp) gross, with 319 kW (427 hp) net and 2,206 N·m of peak torque at 1,200 rpm. The engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, Korea Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards. A CX31 six-speed auto-shift transmission drives all three axles, and automatic inter- and cross-axle differential locks help maintain traction on loose or wet ground. Retarding comes from both the engine compression brake and a hydraulic retarder for controlled descents.
