CAT 345 GC
Pros
- Designed as the GC (“General Construction”) variant with efficiency focus vs heavier models like 345C or 349.
- Good reach and depth for large trenching, earthmoving and general excavation work.
- 630 L/min flow supports heavy implement movement and attachments smoothly.
JCB NXT 150
Pros
- Larger 0.75 m³ bucket gives good material movement per cycle.
- Deep digging (~5.2 m) and high reach (~8 m) handles typical construction tasks comfortably.
- 600 mm wide shoe tracks and reinforced links help stability, especially in sloppy/soft conditions.
