Caterpillar shows new coupler and brushcutter

The company unveiled a new connection and attachment.


Mini Hydraulic Universal Coupler

It expands the range of Cat couplers design to increase machine versatility and production in a variety of applications.

  • It interfaces with bale spears, pallet forks and multi- and general-purpose buckets
  • It’s designed for use with 4-, 5- and 8-ton mini excavators.
  • The high-strength coupler weighs up to 286 pounds to ensure strength and lifting capability.

Industrial Brushcutter

The new attachment is designed for use with skid-steer loaders, compact track loaders, multi-terrain loaders and compact wheel loaders fitted with a universal coupler.

  • It provides a 72-inch cutting width and has the capability to handle material up to 8 inches in diameter.
  • The high-strength frame and push-bar are designed to direct standing vegetation toward a series of four hardened, reversible blades that quickly and efficiently reduce material volume.
  • The heavy-duty, 900-pound blade carrier provides high inertia for swinging the blades through dense brush.
