ZX50U-5N Compact Excavator Named Top 50 Product by Equipment Today

The Contractors’ Top 50 Products Awards showcase equipment, technology and products that the construction industry and the Equipment Today team have identified as the most intriguing and important of the year. Award recipients are based on nominations from manufacturers, owners, end users and Equipment Today leadership, as well as page-view data on new products featured in Equipment Today and on ForConstructionPros.com/Equipment over a one-year period.

Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas announced the arrival of the 10,560-lb (4,790kg) ZX50U-5N excavator in the spring of 2022. This compact excavator allows the engine speed to be matched to the job with power/economy work modes. Reduced tail swing and an independent swing boom allow the ZX50U-5N to work in congested areas. A standard quick-coupler-equipped, boom-mounted auxiliary line makes attachment hookup a snap.
