Description
The Komatsu PW158-11 is a wheeled excavator from Komatsu in the 16-tonne class, built for contractors who need more capacity than the smallest models while retaining high mobility between jobsites.
PW stands for Power Wheeled. 158 refers to the weight class. As a wheeled excavator it can travel independently on public roads without a low-bed trailer, making it efficient for urban and suburban projects with multiple work locations. Compared to a crawler excavator this translates to faster logistics, particularly where jobsites are close together.
Komatsu PW158-11 specs, weight and dimensions:
The PW158-11 is powered by a 110 kW (148 HP) Stage V engine and has an operating weight of 15,125–17,360 kg depending on configuration and undercarriage. For full dimensions and technical specifications, see the datasheet or the manufacturer's page for the PW158-11.
The Komatsu PW158 delivers good capacity for trenching, utility work, road construction and foundation work. Compared to the Komatsu PW148-11 it offers greater lifting capacity and more stability when working with heavier attachments and larger buckets. At the same time it remains more compact and manageable than the Komatsu PW168-11 and Komatsu PW180-11, making it well suited to projects where both capacity and accessibility are important.
The HydrauMind closed-centre load-sensing hydraulic system automatically adjusts output to match the load, providing smooth and precise control, stable lifting performance and efficient power transfer. KomVision is fitted as standard for all-round visibility, and KOMTRAX telematics and the Komatsu CARE maintenance programme keep operating costs and downtime low.
