Baumalight HD Fixed Tooth Mulcher | Model MX960R & MX1160R | Rotor Width 60" | Machine Size 8 To 20 Tons | For Excavators
DESCRIPTION
Take your land clearing to the next level with the Baumalight MX960R and MX1160R Fixed Tooth Mulchers, engineered for professional-grade mulching performance on excavators ranging from 18 to 36 tons. Whether you're tackling dense brush, uprooting rocks, or grinding down stubborn stumps, these mulchers deliver unmatched power, precision, and durability.
Built with AR400 high-strength steel, these brush mulchers feature a 60” heavy-duty rotor, aggressive root rake ripper teeth, and industry-leading bent-axis piston motors. The MX960R uses 38 double-tipped carbide teeth (R9000) for efficient ground-level cutting and stone resilience. Meanwhile, the MX1160R upgrades to 31 sharpenable planer teeth (P11000) with bite-limiting mulcher rings, optimizing efficiency and reducing wear on tooth holders during high-impact jobs.
These units are ideal for contractors, landowners, forestry professionals, and municipalities demanding reliable vegetation management equipment for heavy excavators.
