This 2023 K-Tec 1228 is a pull scraper — sometimes called a towed scraper or earth scraper — a type of earthmoving equipment designed to cut, load, carry, and spread large volumes of soil and material in a single pass. Pull scrapers are towed by a pusher tractor or articulated dump truck and are widely used in land grading, site preparation, road building, and large-scale earthmoving operations. K-Tec is a Canadian manufacturer known for producing high-capacity pull scrapers and earthmoving equipment, with its machines commonly found in agriculture, civil construction, and infrastructure development.
This unit is listed in used condition and is located in Kansas, USA, available at $199,000.
The machine is specified with a 28 cubic yard bowl capacity, making it well suited to high-volume earthmoving applications where maximising material moved per pass is a priority. It runs on 23.5 R25 tires, a robust radial tire size appropriate for the demands of rough terrain and heavy haul cycles. The scraper is equipped with an automatic cushion ride system, which absorbs shock and reduces stress on both the machine and the towing unit during loaded travel, contributing to operator comfort and reduced wear over long haul cycles. A single height gauge is also included, providing the operator with a reference point for consistent cut depth management.
Additionally, this machine carries an additional two years of structural warranty beyond its original coverage, offering the next owner meaningful protection against structural defects — a notable inclusion for a used machine of this class.
