Technical Specifications
Flow Performance
With a 72 cc displacement, the R986111201 provides consistent hydraulic output per revolution to support stable machine response under varying loads. Its displacement and Series 52/53* design support predictable flow behavior and repeatable performance across the operating range.
Efficiency & Durability
Rated for 3600 PSI nominal pressure with 4600 PSI peak capability, the unit is designed to maintain performance under high-pressure duty cycles. A maximum speed of 2600 supports strong power density while helping sustain consistent output as operating demands change.
Installation
Designed as a direct OEM replacement for CAT 397-6960, the R986111201 is intended to match the original fit and connection interface. Installation is straightforward with no modifications required when replacing the existing unit.
Features and Benefits
- 72 cc displacement: Delivers repeatable output per revolution for consistent hydraulic response and controllable machine performance.
- 3600 PSI nominal / 4600 PSI peak pressure rating: Supports high-load operation and short-duration pressure spikes without requiring changes to the hydraulic system’s operating setpoints.
- 2600 maximum speed capability: Enables dependable operation at higher shaft speeds to maintain performance across demanding duty cycles.
Operational Information
Operate within the stated limits of 3600 PSI nominal pressure (4600 PSI peak) and up to 2600 speed to maintain stable performance. The 48.5 weight and Series 52/53* platform support reliable operation when used within the machine’s intended hydraulic operating conditions.
Quality Assurance
Manufactured to Bosch Rexroth’s stringent quality standards with rigorous testing throughout the production process.

Product Selection Guide
Within the 52/53* series, R986111201 (72cc) sits mid-range in displacement versus the listed alternatives, while all compared models share the same 3600 PSI nominal pressure rating but differ in speed capability.
?? Important: The specifications shown are for reference and comparison purposes. Always verify specifications with the official manufacturer documentation from Bosch Rexroth or contact our technical team before ordering to ensure compatibility with your application.
| Part Number | Displacement | Pressure | Max Speed | Series |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| R986111201 | 72cc | 3600 PSI | 2600 | 52/53* |
| R986110076 | 110cc | 3600 PSI | 2200 | 31* |
| R986110124 | 45cc | 3600 PSI | 2600 | 52/53 |
| R986111479 | 28cc | 3600 PSI | 3000 | 52/53 |
| R986110786 | 100cc | 3600 PSI | 2300 | 52/53 |
Key Differences
Displacement
R986111201 is 72cc; choose higher displacement options like 100cc (R986110786) or 110cc (R986110076) when you need more flow per revolution, or lower displacement options like 45cc (R986110124) or 28cc (R986111479) when you want reduced flow and finer control.
Pressure Rating
All comparison models list 3600 PSI nominal pressure, matching R986111201’s nominal rating; however, R986111201 also specifies a 4600 PSI peak pressure—verify peak-pressure requirements if your system sees transient spikes.
Speed
Maximum speed varies: R986111201 and R986110124 are listed at 2600, higher-displacement options are lower (2200–2300), and the 28cc option is higher (3000); match the pump/motor speed capability to your prime mover and duty cycle.
Quick Selection Guide
Choose: R986111201
Because: When you need a 72cc displacement with 3600 PSI nominal pressure, 4600 PSI peak pressure capability, and up to 2600 max speed in a 52/53* unit.
Choose: Higher displacement model
Because: When flow requirements exceed what a 72cc unit can provide, consider 100cc (R986110786) or 110cc (R986110076), noting their lower listed max speeds (2300 and 2200 respectively).
Choose: Lower displacement model
Because: When you need reduced flow per revolution or higher speed capability, consider 45cc (R986110124) at 2600 max speed or 28cc (R986111479) at 3000 max speed.
Compatibility: Verify mounting pattern, shaft configuration, and port sizes match your existing installation, and confirm displacement, nominal/peak pressure requirements, and maximum speed align with your system.
