Cleveland Brothers CAT

What Cleveland Brothers CAT does

Cleveland Brothers Equipment Co., Inc., operating as Cleveland Brothers CAT, is a privately held authorized Caterpillar dealer founded in 1948 (corporate records show 1949 incorporation) and headquartered in Murrysville, Pennsylvania. The company holds exclusive Cat distribution rights for western and central Pennsylvania, northern West Virginia, and western Maryland, operating 10+ branch locations that deliver new and used heavy equipment sales, short-term and long-term rentals, parts supply (new, remanufactured, exchange, and undercarriage), and certified service and repair. Its product portfolio spans Cat construction equipment (excavators, wheel loaders, compact track loaders, dozers, motor graders, telehandlers), power systems (diesel and natural gas generators from 40 kW to 600+ kW), and aggregate equipment through the CB Con-Agg division acting as Metso dealer. Supporting technologies include Cat's VisionLink fleet management, ProductLink remote monitoring, SOS Online fluid analysis, SIS Online parts/service information, and the proprietary EMSolutions equipment management offering. Affiliated wholly-owned entities — CB HYMAC (hydraulic attachments) and SITECH Allegheny (Trimble-based machine control) — extend the company into adjacent product lines.

The company's business model combines one-time equipment sales with recurring service revenue. Subscription-style agreements include the WorkReady Customer Value Agreement (next-day parts delivery, 48-hour back-to-work commitment) and Customer Support Agreements (preventive maintenance, expedited parts, emergency field support). Financing is offered through Cat Financial with lease-to-own and flex lease options. A distinguishing asset is the Ebensburg, PA Engine Rebuild Center — a 165,000 sq ft climate-controlled facility with 300 engines-per-year capacity dedicated to Cat G3500 and G3600 gas compression engines, complemented by Component Rebuild Centers in Clearfield and Indiana for transmissions, torque converters, differentials, and engines. Certified rebuilds deliver like-new warranty at roughly half the cost of new equipment. Vertical mix spans Construction, Aggregate & Mining, Power Generation & Energy, Oil & Gas, Agriculture, and Governmental customers, with a regional sales and field service technician force (75+ generator and switchgear technicians) supporting rapid on-site response.
