This Caterpillar 627K is a used motor scraper — sometimes called a elevating scraper or wheel tractor-scraper — a self-powered earthmoving machine designed to cut, carry, and deposit large volumes of material in a single pass, making it a core piece of equipment for road building, grading, land levelling, and large-scale earthworks. Caterpillar is one of the world's most widely recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, with a long-established reputation for building robust machines that serve construction, infrastructure, mining, and agriculture industries globally. This 2019 example is available in Wyoming, USA, and is priced at $825,000.
The machine is configured as a push-pull arrangement, meaning it is set up to work in tandem with a compatible push-pull partner unit, allowing the two scrapers to assist each other during loading — one pushing while the other is loaded, then roles reversing — significantly improving productivity and reducing cycle times without the need for a dedicated push dozer.
Power is provided by a C13/C9.3 engine combination certified to US EPA Tier 4 Final emissions standards, confirming compliance with current North American exhaust regulations. The dual-engine arrangement is typical of push-pull configured wheel tractor-scrapers, delivering the tractive effort needed for efficient self-loading operation.
The unit includes Sequence Assist with the corresponding wiring group and CPM (Cycle Pass Mode) functionality, a system designed to help the operator manage the loading and ejection sequence more consistently, which can reduce operator fatigue and improve material retention across cycles. A Fast Fill group is also fitted, allowing quicker hydraulic fluid servicing and reducing maintenance downtime in the field.
Standard Work Lights are included for operation in low-light conditions. The cab is equipped with a standard HVAC inlet for climate control, and the machine carries a Standard Start Attachment and Non-Powered Access group for safe and reliable entry and egress. Documentation is supported by an Online Owner's Manual, and the unit ships with Films AR in US ANSI format — the standard decal and safety labelling package for the North American market. The equipment certification code is listed as NCR, and the machine holds Standard Certification AR.
Tyres are sized at 33.25R29 Bridgestone VLT, rated E2A, a heavy-duty radial specification appropriate for the demanding load-and-haul cycles typical of motor scraper operation.
