This National NBT50 is a mounted boom truck — sometimes referred to as a crane truck — designed to lift and place heavy loads at height from a self-contained, road-mobile platform. National is a well-established American manufacturer of boom trucks and hydraulic cranes, supplying equipment to construction, utilities, oil and gas, and industrial maintenance sectors worldwide.
This 2024 used unit is built around the National NBT50128 specification, offering a 50 US ton lift capacity and a 128-foot main boom, with a luffing jib that extends from 26 to 45 feet for additional reach and flexibility in tight or complex lift scenarios. The crane is mounted on a Western Star 47X chassis, providing a robust and purpose-built carrier platform well regarded in the heavy-duty trucking industry. Power comes from a Cummins X15 engine rated at 565 horsepower, paired with an Allison 4700 automatic transmission for smooth, reliable power delivery under demanding lifting and travel conditions. Front disc brakes contribute to confident stopping performance given the vehicle's overall weight and capacity.
Stabilization is handled by four out-and-down outriggers, which extend the crane's footprint and level the machine on site to support rated lifts. An 80-gallon fuel tank provides extended range and reduced downtime between refuels, an important consideration on longer jobs or remote sites. The seller notes additional equipment beyond what is listed above.
The machine is located in Ohio, USA.
