DESCRIPTION

Conquer the most extreme land clearing challenges with the FA FAFC Series Commercial-Grade Forestry Cutter the ultimate skid steer attachment for professionals who refuse to compromise on power, durability, or performance. Engineered specifically for harsh environments and extreme forestry applications, this heavy-duty forestry mulcher transforms your skid steer loader into an unstoppable land clearing machine capable of processing trees, stumps, brush, and dense vegetation up to 8 inches in diameter.

The FAFC Series represents the pinnacle of forestry cutting technology, combining four ultra-durable AR400 steel blades with 16 carbide-tipped mulching teeth to create a devastating dual-action cutting and mulching system that pulverizes woody material into fine mulch in a single pass. This isn't just a brush cutter it's a complete forestry management solution designed for commercial logging operations, land development contractors, right-of-way clearing crews, and demanding professionals who need the absolute best equipment available.

Available in three professional configurations 60-inch, 72-inch, and 78-inch cutting widths the FAFC Series delivers the perfect balance of aggressive cutting power and operational efficiency. Each model features precision-engineered hydraulic systems optimized for 20-30 GPM or 30-45 GPM flow ranges, ensuring your skid steer's full power potential is converted into relentless cutting and mulching performance that outworks and outlasts competitive forestry cutters.

What distinguishes the FAFC Series from standard brush cutters is its extreme-duty construction throughout every component. From the reinforced 1/4-inch steel deck that shields against impact damage to the commercial-grade sealed bearings and hardened cutting components, every element is built to survive the punishment of daily professional forestry work. The carbide-tipped mulching teeth maintain their edge through abrasive conditions that would destroy conventional teeth, while the four-blade AR400 steel cutting system processes material faster and more thoroughly than three-blade designs.

This forestry cutter is purpose-built for commercial land clearing contractors, professional logging operations, municipal forestry departments, utility right-of-way maintenance, pipeline clearing crews, wildfire prevention specialists, and large-scale agricultural operations tackling land reclamation projects. Whether you're clearing shooting lanes through dense timber, creating firebreaks in fire-prone areas, removing invasive tree species, preparing land for development, or performing selective thinning operations, the FAFC Series delivers commercial-grade results that justify its professional-grade construction.

The FAFC 6000 (60-inch, 1,475 lbs) offers exceptional maneuverability for selective cutting in mature timber stands, the FAFC 7200 (72-inch, 1,925 lbs) provides optimal productivity for mixed forestry applications, while the FAFC 7800 (78-inch, 2,100 lbs) maximizes clearing capacity for large-scale land clearing and site preparation projects where maximum productivity is essential.

When standard equipment simply isn't enough and your reputation depends on completing the toughest jobs reliably and efficiently, the FA FAFC Series Forestry Cutter delivers the extreme performance, uncompromising durability, and professional-grade results that separate industry leaders from everyone else. This is the forestry cutter for those who demand the best option available period.
