Bobcat Log Splitter Attachment for Skid Steers
Overview
Bobcat's log splitter attachment converts a skid steer into a high-production firewood splitter. The hydraulic ram drives a splitting wedge through rounds up to 20+ inches in diameter — much faster than standalone hydraulic splitters. Ideal for rural Canadian properties and cord-wood operations. Available through authorized Bobcat dealers in Canada.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You're processing brush, saplings, and slash in place — drum mulchers handle mixed material up to 6 inches
- Land clearing, pipeline corridor prep, or right-of-way maintenance where material stays on site
- Your machine has the high-flow hydraulics required — drum mulchers typically need 25-35+ GPM
⛔ Skip if…
- Your skid steer is standard-flow — most drum mulchers require high-flow to run efficiently
- Tree diameter exceeds 8 inches regularly — a dedicated forestry mulcher or felling head handles larger material
🔍 Also consider…
- Forestry mulcher for heavier timber and larger diameter material
- Rotary cutter or brush cutter if material size is consistently under 3 inches
Designed for Bobcat machines but mounts to any skid steer or CTL with a universal SSQA quick-attach plate.
