Tigercat competes in three
forwarder classes: the 1055C is a
14 t capacity machine; the 1075C is
a 20 t forwarder; and the 1085C is
rated to carry a massive 25 t load.
The heavy duty 1055C is
designed to excel in both selective
and final felling applications. The
Tigercat F135T85 hooked crane
offers up to 8.5 m (335 in) of
crane reach. With an expandable
bunk and a choice of two wagon
frame lengths, the model is highly
configurable and an excellent
all-around forwarder. WideRange
is now available on the 1055C
and provides a maximum working
speed of 11 km/hr.
The 1075C is designed for
long distance forwarding, steep
slopes, scarifying and other
tough applications. With extreme
duty Tigercat engineered and

Meanwhile, the 1085C excels

especially well matched to steep
slopes. The model is also equipped
with the extreme duty Tigercat
ROB17 bogies, and the WideRange
drive system.
