Cat TH407C Specifications

Basic Information

The Caterpillar TH407C telehandler is a mid-capacity, multi-purpose telescopic handler designed to meet the requirements of construction, agriculture, industrial logistics, material-handling yards, and municipal service operations.

As part of Caterpillar’s C-Series telehandler family, the TH407C delivers a well-balanced combination of structural durability, hydraulic precision, drivetrain reliability, and attachment versatility. The machine’s robust boom structure, high-strength chassis, planetary axles, load-sensing hydraulic system, and full-time four-wheel drive allow it to operate efficiently in rough terrain, confined spaces, and continuous-duty applications.

With strong lifting performance, reliable engines, improved operator visibility, and simplified maintenance access, the TH407C serves as an adaptable tool in both professional construction fleets and agricultural environments.
