This American 7260 is a lattice boom crawler crane — sometimes referred to simply as a crawler crane — designed for heavy lifting operations across construction, industrial, and infrastructure projects. American Crane & Equipment Corporation is a well-established name in the lifting industry, known for producing robust lattice boom cranes suited to demanding applications. This 1978 machine has been maintained in working condition and offers a substantial capacity for its class.
Rated at 100 tons, the crane is powered by a Detroit Diesel 6-71 engine mated to a three-stage torque converter, with a new twin disc converter recently installed. Independent swing is fitted, and the machine features controlled lowering on two drums, giving the operator precise command during delicate picks. The gears and boom are reported to be in good condition.
The counterweight package weighs 49,900 lbs, providing the ballast necessary to support long boom configurations and heavy loads. The crane comes equipped with 120 feet of 59S tube boom plus a jib, along with block and ball, making it ready to work without sourcing additional rigging components. The seller describes it as a strong runner.
This used crane is located in Louisiana, USA, and is offered at $40,000.
