New National tractor mount

US distributor Western Pacific Crane and Equipment has taken delivery of the first 27.2 tonne National Crane NBT30H-2 TM tractor mounted boom truck.

The NBT30H-2 TM, a special tractor mounted version of the manufacturer’s NBT30H-2 boom truck model was shown at the recent ICUEE show in Louisville, Kentucky earlier this month. It features a 21 metre four section main boom, giving a maximum tip height of 23.77 metres. It is mounted to a three axle extended wheelbase Peterbilt tractor, with two sets of beam and jack outriggers and 360 degree duties.

Western Pacific says it has added the crane to its fleet for oil field work and utility applications, as well as everyday taxi crane service.

Western Pacific president Bob Johnson said: “We are excited to have this crane in our fleet. The combination of high capacity and best in class boom length makes this crane a perfect fit for utility companies. The longer boom enables customers to pick up loads at the rear of the trailer without detaching from the kingpin.”
