This used Caterpillar 318D Crawler Excavator is in our yard in Shanghai, China (Stock #618). Request an FOB quote; the price is not listed publicly.
Product Feature
Stock #618 is a used Caterpillar 318D, a 20-ton class crawler excavator that we hold in Shanghai, China, for export buyers. We quote FOB Shanghai on request; year and meter reading are confirmed with the quote. Its model number puts the 318D at about 18 t operating weight.
Typical work for this size: breaker work with a hydraulic hammer, general earthmoving and foundation digging and trenching for larger pipes and culverts.
On freight, 20-ton class machines usually ship on a flat rack or as break-bulk; a 40HQ container is only possible with partial disassembly of the boom, stick or counterweight; the final method depends on the unit, the sailing and the destination, and we confirm it with the quote.
As an American brand, Caterpillar has dealer and aftermarket parts coverage in many regions, which matters when you run a used 318D far from Shanghai.
Inspection in our Shanghai yard or by video, plus export documents, is handled by Shanghai Yongcheng Hongsheng Used Construction Machinery.
