Designed as a versatile solution for grading and material handling, the new Cat 253 compact track loader offers a 2,006-pound (910-kilogram) rated operating capacity and an operating weight of 9,343 pounds (4,238 kilograms), supporting easier transport between job sites. 

Building on the Cat 259D3 foundation, the 253 integrates a next-generation one-piece undercarriage with rigid frame-mounted axles designed to support traction and stability when handling heavy loads. Its four fully independent axles mount directly to the frame to enhance grading capability, while the new 15-inch (380-mm) general-duty C-Pattern tracks are designed to increase ground engagement and deliver strong grip in mud and other soft underfoot conditions.

Cat technology helps to advance efficiency and safety at the job site, while today's "smart" Cat 253 CTL technology helps to streamline equipment maintenance through leveraging connected worksites.

"The new 253 fits well between the Cat 249D3 and 255 models, and the C-Pattern track design gives customers a productive all-around machine that can perform on gravel, dirt, hard surfaces, turf, snow and unfinished terrain," adds Waite. "Plus, the 255 and 253 track types are interchangeable, giving customers more options."
