Overview: 8 Ton Sinotruck Howo Telescopic Boom Truck for Global Markets

INDUSTRIAL SPECIFICATION REPORT 2026: EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
Product: 8 Ton SINOTRUK HOWO Telescopic Boom Truck (Model: ZZ1167M461ME1)
Prepared For: Fleet Managers & Construction Operations Leadership
Core Application & Operational Value
The SINOTRUK HOWO 8T Telescopic Boom Truck delivers critical versatility in high-demand material handling environments. Its integrated hydraulic telescopic boom (standard reach: 18-22m, max lift capacity: 8,000 kg at base) eliminates dependency on separate cranes, optimizing cycle times in constrained worksites. Key operational advantages include:

Fuel Efficiency Analysis
The Sinotruck Howo 8 Ton Telescopic Boom Truck is engineered for optimal fuel economy in mixed-duty cycles typical of construction and infrastructure operations. Powered by the Weichai WD615.62C engine, the vehicle achieves:
- Average Fuel Consumption: 28–32 L/100 km under mixed load conditions (on-road transit + crane operation).
- Cruise Efficiency: 24–26 L/100 km at steady 60–70 km/h on flat terrain.
- Idle Optimization: Engine idle shutdown logic and low-RPM operation reduce parasitic fuel loss during crane deployment.
The HW19710 transmission enables precise gear selection, minimizing lugging and over-revving, which contributes to long-term fuel savings. Fleet telemetry integration (optional) allows real-time monitoring and route-based fuel performance analytics.
Load Capacity & Operational Performance
- Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR): 31,000 kg
- Curb Weight: ~23,000 kg (varies with crane configuration)
- Payload Capacity: Up to 8,000 kg (including crane and operator)
- Crane Working Radius:
- Max lift @ 3 m radius: 8,000 kg
- Max lift @ 10 m radius: 2,800 kg
- Max lift @ 20 m radius: 1,200 kg
The rear twin reduction axles (18,000 kg capacity) and robust 12.00R20 tires ensure stable load distribution and high tractive performance on soft or uneven terrain. Tire load index supports sustained operation at 120 km/h on highways with full payload.
Summary for Fleet Deployment
The 8 Ton Sinotruck Howo Telescopic Boom Truck delivers a balanced combination of high torque output, durable drivetrain components, and proven Weichai engine reliability. With the HW19710 transmission and optimized axle loading, it is suitable for:
- Heavy-lift operations in urban construction
- Utility infrastructure (power line, signage, telecom)
- Medium-range material handling with crane integration
Fuel efficiency and low maintenance intervals (15,000 km oil change with Weichai-recommended lubricants) reduce total cost of ownership, making it a competitive asset in medium-duty specialized fleets.

Shipping & Logistics Solutions

Industrial Specification Report 2026
Prepared by: SEA LION International
Subject: Export Logistics Solutions for 8-Ton Sinotruck HOWO Telescopic Boom Truck from China
Target Audience: Fleet Managers & Construction Companies
1. Executive Summary
This report evaluates the most effective maritime logistics solutions for exporting the 8-Ton Sinotruck HOWO Telescopic Boom Truck from manufacturing hubs in China (primarily Jinan, Shandong) to global construction markets. Three primary shipping methods—RO-RO (Roll-on/Roll-off), Bulk Cargo, and Flat Rack (Containerized)—are compared based on cost, transit time, equipment safety, and environmental protection.
A critical operational focus is the application of wax-based anti-corrosion spraying to mitigate seawater-induced degradation during ocean transit, particularly in high-humidity and salt-laden marine environments.
2. Equipment Overview
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | Sinotruck HOWO 8-Ton Telescopic Boom Truck |
| GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) | 8,000 kg |
| Boom Reach | Up to 22 m (model-dependent) |
| Dimensions (L×W×H) | ~9.2 m × 2.5 m × 3.4 m |
| Drive Configuration | 4×2 or 4×4 |
| Pre-Shipment Condition | Operational, fuel partially filled, batteries secured |
3. Shipping Method Comparison
| Criteria | RO-RO Shipping | Bulk Cargo Shipping | Flat Rack Container (20′ or 40′) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Loading Mechanism | Drives onto vessel | Lifted or rolled into hold | Secured on open-top flat rack |
| Stowage Location | Dedicated vehicle deck | General cargo hold | Deck or under deck |
| Vehicle Protection | Moderate (exposed to salt air) | Low (high humidity, moisture) | High (weatherproof wrapping) |
| Securing Method | Wheel chocks, lashing straps | Lashing, cradles, dunnage | Twist locks, lashing bridges |
| Transit Time (China → Middle East) | 18–25 days | 22–30 days | 20–28 days |
| Average Cost (USD/unit) | $1,800 – $2,400 | $1,600 – $2,000 | $2,600 – $3,500 |
| Port Infrastructure | Requires RO-RO terminal | Standard bulk port | Container terminal with FR access |
| Risk of Damage | Low to moderate | Moderate to high | Low (if properly packaged) |
| Customs Clearance | Fast (pre-inspected) | Standard | Standard |
| Best For | Operational units, high volume | Non-operational, disassembled | High-value, corrosion-sensitive |
4. Corrosion Protection: Wax Spraying Protocol
Marine environments expose steel components to saltwater aerosols, leading to accelerated corrosion on undercarriages, boom joints, and hydraulic fittings.
Recommended Anti-Corrosion Treatment:
- Method: Electrostatic wax spraying (oil-based anti-corrosion compound)
- Coverage Areas:
- Chassis frame and cross members
- Axles, suspension components
- Boom pivot points and telescopic sections
- Fuel and hydraulic line supports
- Application Standard:
- Thickness: 25–40 µm dry film
- Material: Solvent-free, marine-grade corrosion inhibitor (e.g., DINITROL 4490 or equivalent)
- Post-Transit Removal: Biodegradable citrus-based degreaser recommended; does not damage paint or seals.
Note: Wax spraying increases pre-shipment prep cost by $120–$180/unit but reduces field maintenance costs by up to 35% in coastal deployment zones.
5. Recommended Shipping Strategy
| Destination Region | Preferred Method | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Middle East / Africa | RO-RO | High volume, fast turnaround, operational readiness |
| Southeast Asia | Flat Rack | Monsoon exposure; need for sealed protection |
| South America (East Coast) | Bulk Cargo (with wax spray) | Cost-sensitive; limited RO-RO infrastructure |
| Europe (Mediterranean) | RO-RO or Flat Rack | Port flexibility; premium on equipment condition |
6. Operational Recommendations
- Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI): Conduct IEC 60068-2 environmental checks pre-loading.
- Battery Isolation: Disconnect and seal battery terminals to prevent discharge and sparking.
- Tire Pressure: Reduce to 70% of operating pressure to avoid expansion at sea.
- Documentation: Provide CMR, CI, PL, CoO, and RoHS compliance for customs efficiency.
- Insurance: All-risk marine policy with corrosion damage endorsement.
7. Conclusion
For the export of the 8-Ton Sinotruck HOWO Telescopic Boom Truck, RO-RO shipping offers the optimal balance of cost and speed for operational units, while Flat Rack containers are superior for corrosion-prone environments. Bulk Cargo remains viable only when cost is the primary constraint and anti-corrosion protocols are strictly enforced.
Mandatory wax-based anti-corrosion spraying is advised for all shipments crossing tropical or high-salinity zones to preserve equipment integrity and reduce post-delivery servicing.
SEA LION International recommends integrated logistics packages combining method-specific stowage, ISO-compliant securing, and certified corrosion protection to ensure arrival-readiness across global construction sites.
