Houston, Texas - Shandong Lingong Construction Machinery Co., Ltd., a construction machinery manufacturer, has expanded its North American construction equipment range with the launch of the STR1000H, its first stand-on mini track loader.
Unveiled at ConExpo 2026, the new machine follows SDLG’s recent entry into the skid steer, compact track loader and utility vehicle segments.
The STR1000H is powered by a 23-horsepower Kubota diesel engine and offers a rated operating capacity of 1,000 pounds. Measuring less than 3 feet wide, the compact loader is designed to operate in narrow and confined jobsite areas.
SDLG says the machine combines strong lifting performance, simple controls and a compact footprint to improve productivity without limiting maneuverability.
The STR1000H is suitable for material handling, site preparation, landscaping, property maintenance, residential and commercial construction, and tree and nursery operations.
The launch comes as demand for stand-on mini loaders continues to rise in the United States. According to Fusable’s EDA equipment finance data, 11,329 new financed units were sold between May 2025 and April 2026, making the segment the fourth-largest construction equipment category by sales.
