ASV’s RT-120 is a big CTL designed to tackle tough applications

Following the release of an armored, slightly more powerful forestry configuration, skid steer and compact track loader maker ASV has released its base model RT-120.

Powered by a 120-horsepower 3.8-liter Cummins engine producing 360 lb.-ft. of torque, the RT-120 boasts 8 percent more torque than its predecessor the RT-110.

Operating capacity is 3,535 pounds with a tipping load of 10,100 pounds.

Also available in forestry and road profiling configurations, the RT-120 is ASV’s largest CTL and is designed for excavation, mulching and other tough applications in the aggregates, construction, landscaping, agriculture and snow removal industries.

”The RT-120 is quite simply the largest, most powerful and highest performing compact track loader ever built,” says Jim DiBiagio, ASV’s chief operating officer.

Offering 15 inches of ground clearance, the RT-120’s Posi-Track dual-level suspension is able to adapt to different terrain at faster speeds thanks to suspended wheels and axles. ASV says the machine performs better on steep slopes than competitors thanks to triple-guide lugs and multiple wheel contact points.
