Overview

Setting the Standard. Then Raising the Bar Higher.

The 992 CAT® wheel loader has set the standard in its size class for over 50 years, offering cutting-edge productivity, unmatched reliability, and long lifespan. Today's 992 raises the bar even higher. Compared to the 992K, the new 992 is up to 48% more efficient and 32% more productive, thanks to a higher payload for improved compatibility, increased rim pull and breakout force, as well as an optimized linkage design. Extended component replacement intervals and increased filter and turbo lifespan contribute to reduced maintenance costs. These improvements, among others, combine to provide significant savings over the machine's lifespan and generate the lowest ownership and operating costs in the industry. With its standard or high lift configurations, the 992 offers ideal compatibility for Cat 775, 777, and 785 truck fleets.

Advantages

Thanks to a higher nominal payload, 9.5% more rim pull, and 20% more breakout force

Up to 48% More Efficient

Increased productivity without increased fuel consumption

10% Reduction in Maintenance Costs

With a 20% increase in component lifespan, prevention of tire slippage, and automatic retarder controls

  • The productivity
  • Efficiency optimization features
  • Versatility
  • Long lifespan

Security

Designed for visibility, with a higher windshield that offers a 25% increase in glass surface for a better view of the bucket, a standard rearview camera, optional 270-degree Detect cameras, LED lighting, and standard mining application mirrors. Improved access and egress, with an integrated motorized access system, adjustable suspended steps, wide 45-degree angle stairs, an emergency exit ladder, and handrails on each side. Wide walkways with non-slip surfaces and integrated locking/tagging points in maintenance areas. Speed limiter, which sets maximum speeds in forward and reverse.

Driver's comfort

50% increase in leg space and width at the knees for the driver compared to the previous model. Reduced vibrations, low noise levels, and automatic temperature controls. Electrohydraulic speed-sensing power steering with force feedback for all-day comfort during work. Pressurized cabin equipped with a new generation seat with 9-inch travel, active cooling and heating, adjustable lumbar support, tilt adjustment, and adjustable pneumatic reinforcements on the seat and backrest.

Confident and autonomous driver

Built-in commands with low effort that make cycles smoother and faster while reducing fatigue. Large color LED screens, easy to consult, which provide access to the electronic user and maintenance guide. Driver coaching, which enables the driver to exceed goals by measuring and providing feedback to reinforce appropriate operating techniques. New Autodig components that increase efficiency and reduce tire wear by automating critical parts of the excavation cycle. Prevention of payload overload, which prevents significant payloads from fully filling the dump truck.

The productivity

Increased nominal payload, allowing for a 4-pass loading on a 90.7-ton (100 US ton) dump truck, regardless of the application. Improved excavation thanks to a 20% higher breakout force compared to previous models, without an increase in cycle time. 9.5% increase in rim pull effort and increased traction. Superior loading with Cat Performance buckets, which offer easier and faster loading, increased material fill rates and retention, larger bucket volume, and improved bucket and machine stability due to a lower and closer payload to the machine. Greater stability, thanks to an increase in static balance limit load and a better weight-shift ratio, allowing the operator to be more confident and productive.

Efficiency optimization features

Prevention of tire slippage, which reduces the effort on the rim when the pressure on the tire is low and increases it when the pressure on the tire is higher, thus providing maximum effort on the rim when it can be used. Automatic tire definition, which automatically applies a lifting command at the optimal moment to increase traction on the tire, allowing for an increase in usable effort on the rim. Prevention of lifting stalling, which automatically applies the rotor clutch when necessary to prevent hydraulic stalling during front lifting, maintaining continuous lifting motion without excessive use of the rotor clutch. Positive flow control hydraulic circuit, which improves efficiency through dual pump and valve control, and increases sensitivity and control of the bucket to provide consistent performance. On-demand acceleration function that allows the driver to maintain normal operation through the left pedal and equipment, while the 992 manages the engine speed.

Versatility

Ideal regardless of the temperature, with a pack for operation at high temperatures (55 °C / 131 °F), cold weather features such as cooling fan bypass, coolant heating elements, and 120V or 240V fuel heater, 240V engine oil, and heated mirrors. Approved for higher payloads in low to moderate digging resistance applications, increased payload for rehandled materials in the mine operation area or materials in piles, such as coal. Various bucket options, including limestone buckets, granite buckets for high abrasion production applications, extra-robust rock buckets for applications such as loading heavily compacted materials or handling materials with moderate abrasion and high impact, coal buckets for non-abrasive low-density materials, and iron ore buckets for extremely aggressive applications. The new Performance series buckets feature an extended bottom, double radius, and inclined side bars for quick loading, a larger boxed lower section for increased strength, high fill rates, and good material retention, and a higher side plate with a flat top surface that improves the driver's visibility of the bucket from the cab. Cat Ground Engaging Tools (GET) with CapSure™ retention technology, which simplifies component replacement with hammerless retention for quick, easy, and safe installation.

Long lifespan

New improved C32B engine for increased durability. Use of structural molded parts in areas subjected to high stress where the handling arm and front axle are mounted, and improvements in axle cutting, upper joint design, and rear trunnion mounting. Efficient loads transmitted by field-proven solid steel handling arms and reinforced pin joint bores. Drivetrain improvements: 20% increase in scheduled replacement interval for drivetrain components, increase in axle housing size, which eliminated brake anchoring and integrated brakes into the housing, 23% increase in oscillation joint diameter, significantly increasing surface area and reducing bearing wear, and increased hardness of transfer cases (OTG). Chassis, drivetrain, engine, and components: all designed to be refurbished using new, remanufactured, or refurbished parts and components, to provide a multi-life dump truck with performance equal to new, at a fraction of the new price.
