Built For Modern Demolition

Cat demolition equipment prepares you for the most complicated jobsites. With specialized cabs, filtration systems, attachments and security features, Cat demolition equipment has the tools you need to get the job done.

Demolition Equipment That Works Overtime

Caterpillar develops machines with operators in mind. This purpose-built equipment raises your capabilities while you confidently dismantle complex structures.

Purpose-Built Cabs That Keep Operators Safe

When it comes to designing Cat equipment, safety always comes first. Our purpose-built demolition cabs can tilt up to 30 degrees for optimal visibility, and standard Operator Protective Guards (OPG) cover the P5A 10mm laminated, impact-resistant glass windshield and skylight for additional operator safety.

Purpose Built Cabs for Demolition Equipment

Variable Pitch Fans That Keep Equipment Cool

Don't let environmental dangers hamper your work. When debris builds up around the machinery, variable pitch fans automatically reverse airflow to keep the equipment cool. That way, operators don't have to worry about equipment overheating or pause their work.

Variable Pitch Fans for Demolition Equipment

Purpose-Built Guarding That Keeps Machines Secure

Demolition equipment needs to stay in peak condition, no matter what surprises a hazardous jobsite may have in store. Purpose-built guarding protects the operator inside a fortified cab. Cat demolition equipment also comes with full-length track guarding, cylinder protection and bottom guards that shield power train parts.

Cab Filtration Systems That Keep The Workspace Clean

As structures collapse and dust rises, cab air filtration keeps the operator's airflow clean. Cat demolition equipment contains filters and a recirculation filtration system that guard against odor and gas. Meanwhile, an integrated air pre-cleaner extends the life of each filter, as it protects the health of the operator.

Demolition Fronts That Keep Adapting To Your Needs

UHD excavators adapt to whatever challenges await them. In just 15 minutes, two workers can change a front, easily switching between demolition and truck-loading operations. Available in one-piece, two-piece and a variety of length options, a versatile selection of fronts makes your demolition goals a reality.
