Used Excavators Komatsu

Komatsu is one of the most trusted names in heavy construction equipment. Their excavators are known for solid build quality, efficient fuel systems, and long service life. But here's the thing—brand new Komatsu excavators can run anywhere from $100,000 to over $1 million depending on the size and model. That's a big number for most construction businesses.

A certified used Komatsu excavator, on the other hand, can save you up to 75% of that cost. For example, one of our recent buyers purchased 2 used Hitachi 350-5G excavators for RMB 800,000 total—compared to RMB 3.2 million for new units. That's real money back in your pocket.

And Komatsu machines are built to last. Their KOMTRAX monitoring system tracks fuel consumption, operating hours, location, and service alerts in real time. This means you can check the machine's history before you buy. When buying from us, you'll get complete maintenance records, performance test reports, and full inspection details.

Komatsu makes excavators in all sizes—from mini models like the PC30MR-5 at around 6,800 lbs to massive mining machines like the PC8000-11 that tips the scales at over 1.7 million lbs. Here are some popular used models we source for our customers:

Each model comes with different features. The PC78US-11, for example, has a tight tail swing radius that lets it work in confined spaces. The PC210LC-11 is one of Komatsu's best sellers for mid-sized jobsites and offers Intelligent Machine Control (IMC) on select versions.

We don't just list equipment and hope for the best. Our team has over 7 years of experience in the construction machinery industry. When you tell us the brand, model, year, and operating hours you're looking for, we start searching through our network of direct sellers—no middlemen involved.

Once we find a match, we gather detailed photos, performance data, and pricing. We can also help you arrange equipment inspections, repairs, or painting before shipment. Every machine we work with goes through a screening process so you're not stuck with a lemon.

Ready to get started? There are two easy ways to work with us. You can browse the Komatsu excavators listed on our site and tell us which one you want—we'll contact the seller and get you a full quotation. Or, you can tell us exactly what specs you need, and we'll search the global market for you.

Either way, you don't have to travel around, waste time calling dealers, or visit a dozen websites. But if you want to inspect the machine by yourself, you can come to China and our team will show you exactly the machine's condition. Just send us a message or call our team directly to get a quote.

What is the average price of a used Komatsu excavator?

Prices vary based on model, age, and operating hours. Mini excavators like the PC30MR-5 can start around $15,000–$25,000 used. Medium-sized models like the PC120 or PC200 typically range from $30,000 to $80,000. Large excavators such as the PC350 or PC490 can run $100,000+. Buying used can save you 50–75% compared to new equipment.

How many hours is too many for a used Komatsu excavator?

Most Komatsu excavators are designed to run 10,000–12,000 hours before needing major repairs. Machines with under 5,000 hours are considered low-use and may still perform like new with proper maintenance. Always ask for service records and a KOMTRAX report before buying.

What should I check before buying a used Komatsu excavator?

Look at the engine condition, hydraulic system, undercarriage wear, and any cracks on structural components like the boom or arm. Ask for maintenance logs and operating hour reports. If possible, request a video of the machine running or schedule an on-site inspection.

Can I buy a used Komatsu excavator and ship it internationally?

Yes. At Fair Trade Machinery, we help international buyers with logistics and customs clearance. We've shipped equipment to customers in Africa, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and more. Shipping time depends on your location—for example, equipment typically reaches the Port of Djibouti in about 4–6 weeks from China.

Does Fair Trade Machinery offer any warranty on used equipment?

We work with suppliers who often provide warranty options for core components—sometimes up to one year—plus remote technical guidance after the sale. Specific warranty terms vary by seller, so ask us for details when you request a quote.
