Frequently asked questions

1. Is the HOWO TX5 8×4 Concrete Mixer Truck with 340 horsepower sufficient for heavy-duty applications?

Application: 340HP (MC07 diesel) suits urban/short-haul concrete transport (≤100km). For heavy slopes, downshift manually to maintain torque (1760N·m@1200rpm).

Upgrade option: For mountainous/long-haul routes, choose TX7 440HP LNG version (MT13 engine, 1900N·m torque).

2. How much concrete can the 7.9 cubic meter mixing tank of the HOWO TX5 8×4 Concrete Mixer Truck actually load?

Legal limit: Rated load 17.27 tons (density ≤2.4 tons/m³).

Practical note: At density 2.6 tons/m³, actual load ≈20.5 tons → Overload risk (strictly follow 17.27 tons).

3. How to maintain the hydraulic system of the HOWO TX5 8×4 Concrete Mixer Truck to reduce failures?

Critical steps:

① Replace oil & filters every 500 hours (use L-HM46 anti-wear oil);

② Daily check oil level/pipeline seals (prevent air ingress);

③ Avoid prolonged overload (stop to cool if pressure >230bar).

4. How is the HOWO TX5 8×4 Concrete Mixer Truck’s curb weight of 13.6 tons achieved? Does it affect durability?
  • Lightweight tech:
  1. Aluminum fuel tank/air reservoirs (-300kg)
  2. Single-layer high-strength frame (8mm thickness)
  3. Optimized drum structure (4mm spiral blades)
  • Durability: Critical parts (axles/frame) retain reinforced design → Tare weight doesn’t compromise lifespan.
5. Does the HOWO TX5 8×4 Concrete Mixer Truck cab meet international safety standards?
  • Certification & design:
  1. Passed EU ECE R29 crash tests (frontal/side impact);
  2. High-strength steel cab (yield strength ≥700MPa);
  3. Doors openable under deformation (reinforced hinges).
