Equipment Overview
The Cat 854 is a wheel dozer built for large-scale mining and heavy-duty dozing, the largest model in Caterpillar’s wheel dozer line. It has 607 kW (814 hp) of net power, an operating weight of 101,720 kg with the standard Semi-U blade fitted, and a 30.5 m³ blade capacity in that configuration, suited to large mining operations, power-generating utilities, and general contracting work where mobility, versatility, and high production matter.
Power comes from the Cat C32B engine, offered in this Tier 4 Final rating or a Tier 2 equivalent alternative rated at 614 kW (823 hp) net, with a 30% torque rise. A Cat planetary powershift transmission with an impeller clutch torque converter, lock-up clutch, and rimpull control system delivers up to 25.1 km/h in reverse, and pilot-operated, load-sensing steering gives the articulated frame a 9.55 m minimum turning radius over the blade. Semi-U, heavy-duty Semi-U, and coal blade options are available, up to 44.8 m³ capacity.
