XCMG XCT25 25T Crane

Overview of the XCMG XCT25 Truck Crane

The XCMG XCT25 is a 25-ton hydraulic truck-mounted crane designed for contractors, industrial operators, and rental fleets that need a balance of road mobility, lifting reach, and job-site versatility. Built on a 3-axle carrier, the XCT25 can self-propel between project locations at speeds up to 85 km/h, then deploy its hydraulic outriggers and 33.5 m telescopic boom to deliver rated lifts across a wide range of working radii.

The XCT25 is part of XCMG's widely deployed truck crane lineup and is commonly specified for construction lifting, industrial installation, bridge work, equipment handling, machinery relocation, and infrastructure projects.

Key Specifications at a Glance

Engine and Drivetrain

The XCMG XCT25 is powered by an SC7H260Q3 inline 6-cylinder, turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine producing 192 kW of rated power. The drive configuration is 4×2, prioritizing fuel efficiency and simplicity on paved road travel while delivering the torque needed to handle 42% gradeability on unpaved job-site access roads.

Boom System and Lifting Performance

The crane's 4-section telescopic boom extends to 33.5 m, with the option of an 8.15 m fixed jib that increases the maximum lifting height to 41.6 m. The base-boom rated lifting moment of 941 kN·m gives the XCT25 strong performance in its class, particularly at mid-radius working positions where most construction lifting occurs.

• Main boom: 4-section, 33.5 m maximum extension

• Jib option: 8.15 m fixed jib

• Fully extended boom + jib lift capacity: 6.1 t

• Max lifting height: 41.6 m

Carrier and Mobility

The 3-axle carrier keeps the XCT25 maneuverable on tight job sites and compliant with common road-permit requirements for 25-ton truck cranes. With a top travel speed of 85 km/h and 42% gradeability, the unit is well suited to relocating between spread-out project locations without requiring a separate transport trailer.

• Travel speed: 85 km/h

• Gradeability: 42%

• Drive configuration: 4×2

• Steering: front-axle

Outrigger System

Hydraulic outriggers provide stable footing on uneven ground. Operators deploy the outriggers to set the crane before initiating any lift, with reaction loads engineered for the crane's rated capacity across its working radius.

Dimensions and Weight

• Overall length: 12,207 mm

• Overall width: 2,500 mm

• Overall height: 3,450 mm

• Travel weight: 24,510 kg

These dimensions place the XCT25 in the mid-size category of truck cranes — large enough for industrial lifting work, compact enough to access urban construction sites.
