2012 XCMG QY25K5C

Priced against a new 25-tonne crane, the QY25K5C makes the arithmetic straightforward: the same lifting capacity, the same five-section boom geometry, and a chassis proven on real pours — for a fraction of the capital outlay. What you avoid is the depreciation that hits the day a new machine leaves the dealer yard.

Performance where it matters on site:

• 25-tonne rated capacity with a five-section telescopic boom, handling erection, pour, and steel-setting work without oversizing the fleet
• 2012 build with a working history on Sichuan construction and infrastructure projects — loaded, not parked
• Conventional hydraulics and mechanical layout: local parts sourcing, standard tooling, no dealer-locked diagnostics
• XCMG K-series resale stays liquid, keeping your exit cost low when the job ends

Set the purchase saving against a full inspection, fresh filters and fluids, and a season of running costs, and the budget still lands well under new. Verify the paperwork, walk the boom and outriggers, then put a proven 25-tonner to work.
