Power comes from the Cat C13 engine, delivering strong breakout force and lift capacity for loading trucks, stockpiling, and aggregate handling. The Z-bar linkage and Performance Series bucket design give this machine strong penetration into the pile and high fill factors, meaning more material moved per cycle with less fuel burned per ton a direct cost advantage for operators running long shifts in the UAE’s high-temperature, high-utilization conditions.

This unit has passed our inspection process and is sold ready to work, whether you’re adding to an existing plant fleet, replacing an older loader, or sourcing for a new project mobilization. Caterpillar’s extensive parts and dealer support network across the UAE keeps this machine serviceable and its resale value strong, which is a major reason used Cat 980 loaders remain in consistent demand in the Dubai used equipment market.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. As a low-hour, recent-model machine, a 2022 Cat 980 typically has the large majority of its service life ahead of it, making it a strong option for buyers who want current Tier 4 Final/Stage V emissions compliance without paying new-machine pricing.

The 980 is typically fitted with a general-purpose bucket in the 5.4–5.7 m³ range, though bucket size can vary by configuration and application (aggregate handling vs. general construction). Confirm the exact bucket fitted on this specific unit before purchase.
