Advantages

Every feature on this Caterpillar TL642D contributes to practical jobsite performance:

• Cat diesel power: The trusted Cat diesel delivers the balance of torque, fuel efficiency, and durability contractors expect. Caterpillar parts availability and dealer support further strengthen long-term serviceability, helping you keep the machine working and making money.
• 4WD traction: Four-wheel drive is essential on uneven, muddy, or loose terrain. The 4WD system helps the TL642D navigate active construction sites, yards, and laydown areas with confidence, improving uptime when conditions are less than ideal.
• 6000 capacity: A 6,000-class rating is a proven sweet spot for general construction. It’s strong enough to lift loaded pallets of block, lumber, roofing bundles, rebar, mechanical units, and more—yet nimble enough for congested sites.
• 42 ft lift height: A 42-foot lift height provides the reach needed to stage materials at elevation, feed crews on upper floors, and set loads on scaffolding or roof decks. It helps reduce crane calls on many tasks and keeps crews productive.
• 60" pallet forks: The included 60" pallet forks support standard and oversize pallets, improving handling stability, visibility to the tips, and control when placing loads. Having forks included helps you get to work immediately after delivery.
• Foam filled tires: Foam filling dramatically reduces the risk of flats and air loss, cutting unscheduled downtime and service calls. It’s a practical upgrade for sites with debris, rebar, fasteners, or demolition material underfoot.
• Auxiliary hydraulics: Aux hydraulics expand your capability beyond forks, enabling use of compatible hydraulic attachments. That versatility can turn one telehandler into a multi-purpose tool for a wider range of projects.
• Outriggers: Outriggers add stability for precise load placement, especially at reach or when setting materials at height. They help operators work confidently within the machine’s load chart, supporting accuracy and safety.

Applications

The TL642D telehandler is a go-to solution across multiple industries. Its combination of capacity, reach, and 4WD mobility makes it a dependable “daily driver” on a wide variety of sites:

• General construction: Lift and place pallets of materials, stage supplies at elevation, and feed crews efficiently.
• Masonry and concrete: Move block, brick, bagged materials, and forms; position loads on scaffolding with control.
• Framing and roofing: Hoist lumber packs, trusses, and roofing bundles to upper levels with reduced manual handling.
• Steel erection and industrial: Position components, tools, and decking where crews need them, minimizing idle time.
• Facilities and plant maintenance: Support maintenance tasks with safe material handling indoors and out.
• Rental fleets: A reliable, broadly capable mid-class telehandler that covers the most-requested applications.
• Agriculture and yard work: Load/unload pallets, seed, and supplies; maneuver confidently on mixed terrain.

Ownership Value

Owning a Caterpillar TL642D delivers value from day one and over the long run. The Cat diesel engine is built for longevity and supported worldwide, which helps control lifecycle costs. Foam filled tires reduce flat-related downtime and service calls. With auxiliary hydraulics on board, you can extend your capability with attachments to handle more types of work using the same machine, improving utilization. The 6,000 capacity and 42-ft reach hit a broad performance envelope that fits many job profiles—meaning you’ll use the machine more often and justify its place in your fleet. Add in 4WD for surefooted mobility, and this TL642D is set up to deliver consistent, predictable productivity. Caterpillar equipment also tends to hold resale value well thanks to the brand’s reputation for durability and the strength of the support network, which further supports your total cost of ownership.
