XCMG GSQS350-5 Truck Mounted Crane

New octagonal arm section replaces the rectangular profile common in entry-level truck-mounted cranes. The 8-sided polygonal cross-section distributes bending and torsional stresses more evenly across the boom wall — greater lifting capacity and stronger bending and torsional resistance at the same amplitude, with reduced risk of local buckling under off-axis lifts.

Outrigger legs use manual rotation plus automatic turning on a double-stage double-cylinder configuration — wider stable span on uneven jobsite ground and improved machine stability. The rotary-table high-seat operator control gives a better working view of the lift; an optional remote control allows the operator to position for the best load view independent of the seat. Onboard proportional hydraulics support compound (simultaneous) motions, and a hydraulic torque limit valve cuts boom motion before chassis stability is exceeded.

3-axle chassis with 6×4 drive configuration (6 wheels, 4 driven) and 18,500 kg gross vehicle weight — stays within standard road permit thresholds in most European jurisdictions. MC11.40-50 main engine (9.726 L, 294 kW) is a MAN-licensed design meeting Euro V emission compliance. Suited for markets where China III or Bharat Stage V machines require retrofit or import waivers. HW19709XST PTO, 315/80R22.5 tires.

90 km/h maximum driving speed — higher than typical truck-mounted cranes in the same GVW class. Overall dimensions 10940×2530×3850 mm, wheelbase 5225+1350 mm (tandem rear), 16° approach angle and 14° departure angle. Combined with the 18.5-ton GVW, supports daily highway transit between sites on standard road permits — relevant for rental fleets and contractors with project work spread across a region.

Chassis, hydraulic components, and crane accessories share core part numbers with other XCMG truck-mounted crane platforms (sibling GSQS250-5, SQS400P, SQZ2600, SQZ10000) — lower inventory carrying cost for fleet operators running mixed XCMG rosters across multiple truck-mounted crane classes. XCMG L-HM(CY) wide-temperature hydraulic oil works across winter and summer, eliminating seasonal oil changes.
