Technical Specifications

The following specifications are based on standard Shantui SD16 models. Actual values may vary depending on production year, engine version, blade type, and optional equipment.

Powerful Weichai Diesel Engine

The Shantui SD16 is powered by a Weichai WD10G178E25 diesel engine, which delivers strong torque for heavy pushing operations.

The engine provides approximately 131 kW power at 1,850 rpm, allowing the bulldozer to maintain stable performance when moving soil, gravel, coal, and other materials.

In addition, the engine design focuses on durability and fuel efficiency. It is suitable for construction sites where machines need to operate continuously with limited downtime.

Heavy-Duty Crawler Undercarriage

The crawler system is one of the key advantages of the SD16.

The wide track structure improves stability and reduces ground pressure. Therefore, the machine can travel smoothly across:

• Construction sites
• Mining areas
• Gravel roads
• Agricultural land
• Hillside projects
• Industrial foundations

The reinforced track frame and strong rollers help extend service life under tough working conditions.

Hydraulic Blade System

The SD16 shown in the photos is equipped with a large front dozer blade.

The hydraulic blade system allows operators to perform:

• Soil pushing
• Ground leveling
• Site preparation
• Material spreading
