Cat® wheel loaders are trusted to deliver maximum productivity and safety on many applications, from landscaping and construction, to waste management and mining. By their very design wheel loaders make material handling and loading much safer, faster, more precise and profitable. However, fitting the correct G.E.T. is key to maintaining this long-term.
Excessive wear material on the G.E.T. can reduce productivity and increase fuel burn in low impact or low abrasion applications. Equally, insufficient wear material in high impact/abrasion applications can have the same effect, as well as increasing stress and wear on major components. It’s about achieving the perfect balance, at the perfect time.
Fitting the wrong G.E.T. can easily reduce productivity and efficiency by up to 20%. Furthermore, it can cause unnecessary wear and fatigue to both your machine and work tools. Unsure which tool you need? Simply find the material you’re dealing with below and view our recommended solution.
High Silica Sand / Caliche / Shot Granite / Ripped Basalt / Broken Slag / Sand Stone / Granite / Ore
The Advansys™ Tip and Adapter system is Cat’s newest G.E.T. and ensures any wheel loader is ready to take on the toughest of applications. The system’s evolved tips and adapters deliver a 15% increase in productivity and are the strongest in the market.
Sand / Clay / Gravel / Shale / Limestone / Travertine / Frost
Cat wheel loaders must be partnered with the right G.E.T. to achieve optimum productivity and performance. It’s why we recommend the K Series, which is proven to deliver enhanced efficiency in a wide range of applications.
Top Soil / Loam / Coal
Even when dealing with low impact applications, it’s essential you select the right G.E.T. to optimize productivity. The J Series tip features a precise design that delivers the performance you demand whether you’re handling top soil, coal or loam.
Increased wear material enables tips to be used up to 15% longer, extending the life of your machine. Tip movement and adapter wear is also reduced thanks to the precise connectivity between components.
Cat Bolt-on Cutting Edges deliver a reduction in maintenance interval costs and greatly improve on-site accuracy.
Cat’s heat treatment process ensures maximum strength and abrasion resistance. Stress points are also reduced, resulting in lower maintenance costs and greater wear life.
Sidebar Protections ensure your bucket’s structural integrity and strength remains intact. While Cat side-pinned design ensures even the harshest conditions can be tackled.
Each sidecutter is designed to ensure accurate penetration and elevated performance. The range includes General Purpose, Heavy Duty and Strikeoff.
Thanks to its hammerless spring retainer design, installation and maintenance time is reduced. While the mechanically attached wear plate enables you to easily keep on top of wear and stress.
Ideal for high-abrasion, low-to-moderate impact applications such as working in sand or gravel. Our A.R.M. coating is made of extremely hard tungsten carbide particles, which form a protective shield over key wear surfaces.
Coated products last three to five times longer.
Self-sharpening wear pattern reduces change-outs.
