Why This Natural-Gas Tractor Head
The SHACMAN X5000 4×2 LNG Tractor Truck is a China VI natural-gas tractor head built for operators who pay for their own fuel. A 460 hp Weichai gas engine, an automated gearbox and rear air suspension are the three items that decide whether the unit earns its keep on a long-haul route.
Gas Instead Of Diesel
Burning LNG instead of diesel is normally the largest single saving on a high-mileage route. One 1,000 litre cylinder is mounted behind the cab.
Automated Gearbox
A Fast Gear automated transmission takes the clutch pedal out of the working day, which matters most in queueing traffic at port gates and loading bays.
Air Suspension At The Rear
Air bags carry the trailer instead of steel springs, so the cargo rides more easily and the fifth-wheel height can be trimmed to suit the coupling you already run.
China VI Compliant
The WP13NG460E61 engine meets the current China VI emission standard, which keeps the unit usable on routes where older gas engines are refused.

to loaded container
What matters to a buyer is how the SHACMAN X5000 4×2 LNG Tractor Truck reaches them, not how it photographs. We record the exact unit and, where the site allows, video of it running before anything is loaded, so the vehicle you approve is the vehicle that ships.
After that we prepare the configuration sheet, choose the shipping method and issue the export documents your customs office asks for, including the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin. You receive one set of paperwork covering the whole movement.

Talk To Us About This Unit
Tell us your port of discharge and the trailer you intend to pull. We will send the configuration sheet, the shipping option and a quotation for the combination, normally within one working day.
