The Terex 82-50
The Terex 82-50 was designed to compete with the Caterpillar D9G and also replace the company’s existing model 82-80 (TC-12), which had been in continuous production since 1955 and was, by then, quite outdated.
Production model Terex 82-50s made their debut in 1973 to much fanfare. Tipping the scales at approximately 48 tons fully equipped and powered by a GM Detroit Diesel 12V-71T turbocharged V-12 diesel putting out 370 flywheel horsepower, the 82-50 certainly sounded as powerful as it looked!
An Allison 3-speed powershift transmission turned all that horsepower into forward motion and ultimately through the usual Terex planetary final drive system.
The machine’s radiator was mounted in the rear just as with other Terex crawlers, and driven by an extension shaft from the engine.
This made the machine particularly suitable for landfill or land-clearing operations where clogging or damage to the radiator’s fins in a conventionally configured machine was a problem.
