Replica Released by Norscot

Norscot’s new die-cast replica of the Cat® 140M motor grader boasts an array of realistic details representing many unique features of the real machine.

Like all Caterpillar’s M-Series models, the 140M Motor Grader utilizes a special cab design that provides the operator exceptional visibility and ease of use. As replicated on the Norscot model, the angled cab doors, tapered cab floor and clean cab layout dramatically improve sight lines to the blade, drawbar/circle/moldboard and work tools.

Additional features of the 1:50 scale model include:

• Moveable drawbar, circle and moldboard for blade positioning
• Front wheel steering and axle articulation
• Oscillating tandem left and right rear wheels
• Rear ripper raises and lowers • Realistic tire tread design

Item Number 55236 measures 20.3 x 5.1 x 6.6 cm.

“Caterpillar’s M-Series machines are widely recognized as the premier motor graders in the world, offering unprecedented precision and productivity,” said Scott Stern, Norscot’s president and CEO. “Our new Cat 140M scale model will be a prized addition for knowledgeable collectors.”
