Overview

120 tons that drives itself to the job.

The 120|HT is the flagship of Link-Belt’s telescopic truck line: a highway-legal 8×4 chassis that carries itself to the jobsite at up to 61 mph, then sets up on V-CALC outriggers to lift at full rated capacity. Its six-section boom telescopes to 164.1 ft, and with the three-piece 58 ft fly it reaches a 231 ft tip height.

Every function runs through Link-Belt Pulse 2.0, a 10-inch touchscreen operating system with an integrated rated capacity limiter, telematics, and Wi-Fi software updates. A Cummins X12 (445 hp) drives both the road and the crane functions through a ZF TraXon automated manual transmission.
