Manufacturer: Caterpillar ➔
Model: D5H LGP ➔

The Caterpillar D5H LGP is a crawler dozer designed for grading, pushing, and site preparation in soft or low-ground-pressure conditions. The LGP configuration uses wider tracks to reduce ground pressure and improve flotation on wet, sandy, or unstable terrain. The D5H series is known for its durable undercarriage, reliable diesel power, and balanced blade control for earthmoving and land clearing applications. Common uses include road building, forestry work, agricultural land development, and general construction.
