This 2011 Terex RT555-1 is a used rough terrain crane — sometimes referred to as an RT crane — offered from Kentucky, USA. Rough terrain cranes are self-propelled lifting machines engineered to operate on uneven, soft, or unstable ground, making them a staple on construction sites, in industrial facilities, and wherever a conventional truck crane cannot manoeuvre safely. Terex is a well-established manufacturer of lifting and material-handling equipment serving the construction, infrastructure, and industrial sectors worldwide.
The crane is recorded at 4,001 hours of use, a notably low figure for a machine of this age. Its four-section main boom extends to 110 feet, giving it substantial reach for work at height or over obstacles. A luffing jib is included with the unit, adjustable between 33 and 57 feet, which extends the crane's effective working radius and allows operation at a range of angles when the main boom alone cannot reach the pick point.
Rigging equipment comes with the machine. A 55-ton, five-sheave hook block is included, suited to heavy lifts requiring multiple parts of line, along with a 7-ton hook and ball swivel fitted with a safety latch for lighter, single-line work. Together these components allow the operator to configure the crane for a wide range of load capacities and lift geometries without sourcing additional rigging.
Power is provided by a Cummins QSB6.7 engine, a well-regarded turbocharged diesel unit widely used in construction machinery and known for reliability and parts availability. The operator cab is equipped with both heating and air conditioning, providing a controlled working environment across seasonal conditions.
This machine is available for sale or rent.
