Skip to content Moving heavy equipment across the Philippines can be a logistical challenge. The Apache Amphibious Long Arm Excavator Backhoe is designed with retractable pontoons that can be narrowed down for easier mobilization. This allows the machine to fit on ordinary low-bed trailers, saving you from the high costs and permit headaches of “oversized load” transport. Once at the job site-whether it’s a swampy area in Agusan or a river in Bulacan-the pontoons open widely to provide maximum stability during dredging operations.
Yes. The Amphibious Long Arm Excavator Backhoe is specifically engineered for “challenging environments.” The wide-reaching pontoons act as a steady platform, ensuring the machine doesn’t tip even when the long arm is at full extension. This makes it a reliable workhorse for clearing silted waterways and esteros that are too soft for standard backhoes but too shallow for large dredging barges.
Absolutely. We offer bucket capacities ranging from 0.2 to 1.2 cbm. For light silt removal or narrow canal clearing, a smaller bucket is ideal. For massive land reclamation or large-scale dredging, the larger bucket helps your team finish the job faster. Every Amphibious Long Arm Excavator Backhoe is built to maximize efficiency, ensuring you get the best return on your investment for every cubic meter of earth moved.
Yes. Balfront Industries specializes in providing equipment that is LGU-ready and bidding-compliant. We understand the strict technical requirements of government infrastructure and disaster mitigation projects. Our Amphibious Long Arm Excavator Backhoe meets all necessary safety and environmental standards, and we provide all the required documentation to help you pass the technical evaluation during the bidding process.
Heavy machinery often struggles with our local weather, but the Amphibious Long Arm Excavator Backhoe is Tropicalized for Philippine weather. It is built to operate under extreme high heat and withstand the corrosion risks of the heavy rains and humid environments common in local dredging sites. The hydraulic systems and engine cooling are optimized to ensure the machine doesn’t overheat during long shifts under the Philippine sun.
One of the main worries for contractors is “downed” equipment. Balfront ensures spare parts availability in the Philippines, so you don’t have to wait for months for international shipping. We offer Nationwide delivery (Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao) and provide a one (1) year warranty on manufacturer’s defects. Furthermore, our team conducts onsite training for your operators on the Preventive Maintenance System (PMS), ensuring your Amphibious Long Arm Excavator Backhoe stays in peak condition for years.
