INDUSTRY-LEADING GET OPTIONS
WH12 EDT System for 7495 Class Machines
Energy Distribution Technology (EDT) maximizes adapter life and reduces lip wear by redirecting dig energy. EDT delivers operating reliability in extreme environments while minimizing installation and rebuild cost. The EDT system design delivers the reliability you need with 80% less welding time than other stabilized systems. EDT components are efficient to install and maintain, which means cost savings and improved life lifecycle for you.
Cast Lip Design
Perfect Fit.
Cat ERS lip systems are delivered ready to work, saving hours of GET fitment and installation time. Fully machined lip surfaces ensure that Cat GET fits perfectly and secures tightly. This reduces the rate of lip wear, extending lip lifecycle. Machined retention holes reduce stress cracking that originates in this area.

Extended Adapter Life With WH12
Application Adaptability.
The WH12 GET portfolio is adaptable to your ever-changing site conditions. Energy Distribution Technology is associated with the Cat PowerWedge, Static Beams, and Shim components that work together to extend adapter life and minimize lip wear by redirecting dig energy.

More Pull-Back Force With PowerWedge
Superior Compatibility.
Cat PowerWedge retains the adapter with 50% more pull-back force, compared to other systems, which predominately clamp down on the adapter. This results in a more compatible fit for your components and less wear overtime .
More Wear Life with Lip and Wing Shrouds
Increased Wear.
Mechanical lip shroud retention provides positive pull-back to the lip while eliminating Dipper welding and compact radius lip shrouds provide 44% more effective tip length vs standard protection. You can also get more time between replacement intervals with EWL Wing Shrouds that place 3X more wear material in the high-wear area.
of
More Strength Adapter and Edge Protection
Less Bending Stress.
The whisler style adapter is secured to the lip with either hammerless or traditional C-clamp and wedge retention. The hammerless wedge retention assembly is often reusable, helping to lower your operating costs. Gain 30% more adapter strength with static beams that reduce bending stresses in the adapter legs, delivering reliability you can count on.

Versatility With Tip Options
Exceptional Performance.
From general purpose to custom made for your operation, choose from the various tip profiles designed for your specific application. Your Cat dealer can help you select the option that offers the right balance of penetration and wear life for your jobsite.
General
X4-GP tips are symmetrical and the baseline for other tip styles.
of
Impact
X4-I tips are 16 percent stronger than the X4-GP to withstand high-impact applications.
of
Oil Sand Penetration
X4-OSP tips have been designed with a streamline shape in mind for better penetration, a deeper recess to keep the tip sharp throughout its wear life, and is 1" longer than the pen abrasion tip to extend its productive wear life.
of
Pen Abrasion
X4-PLA tips are designed for high-abrasion, low-impact applications where penetration is critical. They are 17 percent longer and have four percent more wear material in the tip body.
