Information

2024 Vermeer® Pipeline Trenchers T955III

Cut through the most difficult rock trenching conditions around.

To cut through the most difficult rock trenching conditions around, Vermeer offers the T955 Commander® 3 trencher. Equipped with a Caterpillar C13 ACERT Tier 3 turbocharged diesel engine, the T955III boasts 415 hp (310 kW). Due to the high-torque rise engine, when you encounter tough trench digging conditions, the engine speed drops, increasing the torque for more power to pull through. With a rugged D6 track chain and a sectionalized trencher boom allowing customized trench depths, the T955III also brings heavy equipment strength and versatility to your construction site.

Features may include:

Low-speed, high-torque motor
  • Use the trenching machine more effectively with less wear due to its low-speed, high-torque, splined headshaft motor.
Standard remote
  • Decrease trencher teeth inspection and replacement maintenance time through a standard remote control that can start or stop the engine, raise or lower the trencher boom and rotate the chain at a slow speed.
Extra wide conveyor opening
  • Promote high-volume spoil removal with an extra-wide 30-in (76.2-cm) dirt conveyor opening that helps reduce jamming.
Rotary power trencher drive motor
  • A rotary power trencher drive motor and splined headshaft produce a lower speed and higher torque which provide superior ground penetration and low chain wear for better production results.
