Komatsu FD25C-17 Specifications

Basic Information

The Komatsu FD25C-17 is a 2.5-ton (2,500 kg / 5,500 lb) diesel-powered cushion-tire forklift engineered for demanding indoor industrial operations. It is ideal for warehousing, factory loading, assembly lines, packaging plants, logistics centers, and similar controlled-surface environments where maneuverability, stability, and torque-rich diesel power are required.

As a member of Komatsu’s proven 17 Series, the FD25C-17 incorporates a strengthened chassis, upgraded operator ergonomics, smooth hydraulic response, and low vibration due to improved driveline alignment and rubber-isolated engine mounting.

The model uses the Komatsu 4D94LE engine, a 3.3-liter industrial diesel engine widely recognized for durability, fuel efficiency, low emissions, consistent torque output, and long overhaul intervals. This engine pairs with Komatsu’s powershift transmission, hydrostatic steering system, robust industrial cushion-tire chassis, and a high-efficiency hydraulic circuit optimized for continuous multi-shift workloads.
