The Cat^® 395 weighs in at 207,400 pounds (roughly 94 metric tons) and is powered by a Cat^® C18 engine producing 542 net horsepower at 1,900 rpm. With fast cycle times and powerful digging forces, bucket penetration is easy, and maximum digging depths range from 23.7 ft up to 38.5 ft depending on boom and stick configuration. Compared to the 390F it replaces, the 395 delivers 10 percent more swing torque and 10 percent more stick force, along with up to twice the structural durability. Booms, sticks, and upper and lower frames are reinforced with baffle plates in high-stress areas to improve the machine’s strength-to-weight ratio without adding unnecessary mass. The heavy-duty undercarriage features thick track links with large bolt joints, large-diameter track roller shafts, and grease-sealed track pins and bushings to extend service life and reduce travel noise. Bucket capacities run up to 6.8 cubic yards in standard-duty configurations or 8.5 cubic yards in mass-ex configurations, and Advansys bucket tips can be swapped with a simple lug wrench — no hammer or special tools required. It is the top choice in its size class.
