Tadano GR500N-1

The GR-500N-1 offers a maximum lifting capacity of 51 tons at a 3.0-meter radius using a 12-part line with the shortest boom (9.7 m). Its boom extends to 41.2 meters and pairs with an 8.0 to 12.7-meter jib, reaching a maximum lifting height of 55.2 meters. With a 1-part line, the jib can handle up to 2.5 tons at a 74° angle.

The crane’s main winch achieves speeds of up to 125 m/min in standard mode (5th layer), and 190 m/min in high-speed mode. The auxiliary winch reaches up to 165 m/min. The boom elevation range is from -0° to 83.5°, with a lifting angle achieved in just 62 seconds. Slewing is continuous 360° at 2.2 rpm.

Built on a robust rough terrain chassis, the GR-500N-1 is powered by a Nissan 2A-GE13C diesel engine, a 6-cylinder turbocharged, intercooled engine producing 272 kW (370 PS) and 1,470 Nm of torque. It uses a 4-speed power shift transmission with Hi/Lo range and selectable 4×2/4×4 drive. The suspension is hydro-pneumatic with locking cylinders for both front and rear axles.

Outrigger span ranges from 3.5 meters (minimum) up to 7.4 meters (fully extended), with multiple intermediate configurations. Each outrigger is independently controlled, and the vertical load capacity is up to 38.3 tons. The crane uses 505/95R25 tires and has a gross vehicle weight of 38,895 kg.

Safety systems include Tadano’s Automatic Moment Limiter (AML), over-wind prevention, boom/jib counterbalance valves, swing lock, drum locks, and working range limiters. Operator comfort is enhanced with a fully equipped cab featuring air conditioning, adjustable seat, power windows, and an optional TV monitor for boom side visibility.

Compact yet powerful, the GR-500N-1 is designed for efficient setup, smooth operation, and safe lifting in industrial, infrastructure, and energy sector jobsites.
