This Caterpillar 160M is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or grading machine — available from a seller in Mexico, priced at $113,500. Motor graders are heavy construction machines designed to fine-grade and level surfaces, commonly used in road building, maintenance, and earthworks to produce a flat or precisely shaped profile across a work surface. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, with motor graders forming a core part of its road-building and infrastructure product line.
This machine is equipped with an enclosed cab fitted with air conditioning and an air-ride seat, providing an operator environment suited to extended working shifts in varying climates. Steering is via joystick, reflecting a more modern control configuration compared to conventional steering wheel setups.
The grader carries a 14-foot moldboard, which is the primary working blade used to distribute, shape, and level material. Front auxiliary hydraulics are fitted, allowing the connection and operation of front-mounted attachments. At the rear, the machine is equipped with a ripper — a towed attachment used to break up compacted ground or hardened surfaces ahead of grading — along with rear auxiliary hydraulics to support additional rear tooling. Tyres are 17.5R25, a radial specification commonly found on machines of this class. The unit was manufactured in 2009 and is offered in used condition.
