This Caterpillar P12000 is a used gas forklift — sometimes called a lift truck or forklift truck — built for heavy-duty material handling in warehouses, distribution centres, yards, and industrial facilities. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy equipment and industrial machinery, supplying construction, mining, logistics, and manufacturing industries with products known for their durability and broad parts availability. This example was built in 2010 and is currently located in Illinois, USA, offered at $28,950.
The machine is rated at a substantial 12,000-pound lift capacity, making it well suited to moving heavy palletised loads, large industrial components, or bulk materials that would exceed the limits of standard mid-range forklifts. It is equipped with a three-stage mast, which provides a lowered height of 103 inches and a maximum lift height of 219 inches, allowing the truck to pass through standard industrial doorways and reach upper racking tiers without requiring a full-height open mast at rest. The LPG fuel system is fed by liquid propane, with the engine itself supplied by Nissan, giving the machine a combustion powertrain suited to both indoor and outdoor use in adequately ventilated environments.
Running on pneumatic tyres, this forklift is equipped for use on hard, outdoor, or moderately uneven surfaces, providing improved cushioning and traction compared to solid-tyre alternatives. The hydraulic system has been plumbed with four-way hydraulics to the carriage, enabling the connection and operation of a wider range of hydraulic attachments beyond standard tilt. The carriage itself carries a sideshifting fork positioner, which allows the operator to adjust both the lateral position and the spacing of the forks from the cab without dismounting — a significant productivity advantage when handling loads of varying widths. A set of forks is included with the machine.
