K-Tec Scrapers: The Numbers You Need

Are you in search of a high-performing and efficient tool for your earth-moving and construction needs? Don't look past our state-of-the-art K-TEC scrapers. A superior solution offering superior carrying capacity, safety, environmental responsibility, high flotation, and a vital reduction in maintenance costs.

Firstly, let's talk about the carrying capacity. A single K-TEC 1228 scraper boasts of an impressive ISO rated heaped capacity of 21.4m3 and a maximum load rating of 30,844 kg. The K-TEC 1237 ADT scrapers configured in tandem take it a step further with a heaped rated carrying capacity of a whopping 55m3 of material managed by a single operator and ADT power unit. The carrying capabilities are simply unmatched in the industry.

Secondly, K-TEC prioritizes safety just as much as power. The scrapers feature a built-in cushion ride system for operator comfort, reducing fatigue injury occurence. The design of the K-TEC scrapers ensures a low centre of gravity, enhancing machine stability and reducing plant rollover risk. In the K-TEC operator's manual, it is clearly indicated, "Use extreme caution when operating on a slope of more than 4-1," ensuring safety in the steepest conditions.

Our commitment to the environment is clearly reflected in the fuel efficiency of the K-TEC 1228 scrapers. The articulated trucks towing these beauties have an average fuel burn of 37 to 42 litres per hour, which depends on circuit distance, ground conditions, cycle times, and material being cut. K-TEC scrapers also eliminate the need for additional plant units, capable of self-loading, carting long distances and spreading on the go.

K-TEC scrapers excel in ensuring low ground pressures and high flotation. The structural design cleverly distributes the weight of the scraper 25% to the tractor's rear and 75% to the scraper's rear wheels. This ensures high flotation even on softer ground conditions.

Finally, the reduced maintenance cost of the K-TEC scrapers is icing on the cake. The use of composite fibre bushings at pivot points only leaves two daily grease points on the scraper's swivel knuckle and four grease points on the rear axle after every 50 hours, minimizing downtime considerably. Additionally, a tungsten coating is available as an option to extend the lifespan of cutting edges working in abrasive materials.

Your search for a superior, reliable, and efficient earth-moving solution ends here. Make a choice for efficiency, longevity, safety, and environmental responsibly. Choose K-TEC scrapers.
