Caterpillar is the world's largest heavy equipment manufacturer for a reason. Started in 1883 as the Holt company, they became known in World War I for the distinctive tracks on their heavy tractors, nicknamed “Caterpillars.” The name stuck, as did the company's reputation for quality and reliability under extreme conditions.
A century later, Caterpillar is much more than just tractors. The company is known for a wide variety of heavy-duty equipment, from excavators to diesel engines and compressors. The Caterpillar 815B Compactor exemplifies Caterpillar's ethic of manufacturing heavy equipment for the heaviest jobs.
The 1988 Caterpillar 815B Compactor was introduced in 1981, and ceased production in 1995, when it was replaced by the 815F. Equipped with a 216hp Caterpillar 3306 diesel direct injection turbocharged engine, it weighs 44169.6lbs, has an eight-speed powershift trans (4 forward, 4 reverse), and measures 22.3x10.6x11.6 (LxWxH, with blade). The blade measures 338.6"x12.3' (HxW). Drum width is 4x38.5" with a drum diameter of 4x40.6" This 815B has 18,047 frame hours, approximately 2400 hours on a rebuilt transmission, 7500 hours on its rebuilt engine, OROPS, tilt blade, very good feet and cleaner bars, and runs very well.

While this 815B has 18,047 frame hours, it has only approximately 2400 hours on a rebuilt transmission, 7500 hours on its rebuilt engine, OROPS, tilt blade, very good feet and cleaner bars, and runs very well.
