DEMOLITION ATTACHMENTS

A demolition attachment is a heavy-duty work tool designed to break, tear out, cut, handle or clear materials like concrete, asphalt, steel and mixed debris. It turns your machine into a controlled force for demolition and cleanup – not just digging and loading. 

Demolition attachments can be used with many carrier machines, including: 

• Skid-steer loaders 
• Compact track loaders 
• Compact excavators 
• Large excavators 
• Backhoe loaders 
• Wheel loaders

The key is matching the attachment to the machine’s mounting interface, hydraulic capability and operating limits. 

To choose the right size and model attachment for your machine, first match the attachment to your carrier’s specs – not just the job. Confirm: 

• Mounting interface or coupler style. 
• Auxiliary hydraulic flow and pressure (if hydraulic). 
• Operating capacity and stability limits. 
• Attachment weight and balance. 
• Material type and duty cycle (light teardown vs. heavy slab work). 

When in doubt, size for control and uptime. Oversizing can slow production and put unnecessary strain on the machine. Before you buy or rent, confirm compatibility with your authorized Bobcat dealer so the attachment matches your machine and the application. 

To choose your attachment for concrete vs mixed debris, use this as a guide: 

• Concrete/asphalt: use a hydraulic breaker to fracture slabs and pavement, then use a crushing-and-separating style concrete tool when you need to reduce material size and sort it for removal or recycling. 
• Mixed debris: use a demolition grapple or grapple bucket to grab, sort and load unpredictable material fast. 

Before you select an attachment, confirm fit and hydraulic requirements with your authorized Bobcat dealer to make sure you get the right performance – and the right setup. 

Demolition attachments can sometimes be interchangeable but never assume they are. Interchangeability depends on the mount or coupler standard, hydraulic requirements, machine size class and the attachment’s approved application. Always verify fit and ratings before use – compatibility is about safety, performance and control, not just whether it hooks up. Your authorized Bobcat dealer can help confirm the right match for your machine and job.
