Product Description
FAE | BL2/EX VT & SONIC Forestry Mulcher | Models 100 & 125 | Width 39" & 49" | Bite Limiter Rotor | Machine Size 8–14 T | For Excavators
DESCRIPTION
Elevate your land-clearing projects with the FAE BL2/EX series, a lineup of mid-size forestry mulchers designed for 8–14 ton excavators. Whether you're managing overgrown trails, maintaining wildlife habitats, or reclaiming disturbed vegetation, these attachments combine intelligent engineering with rugged performance.
At the heart of each model is FAE’s signature Bite Limiter rotor heavy-duty steel profiles that regulate tooth depth, reducing hydraulic demand and delivering fast, consistent mulching. Choose between the VT models, equipped with a variable-torque hydraulic motor for maximum power when tackling thick limbs, or the SONIC versions, which feature an automatic hydraulic system that adapts in real-time for smooth, reliable operation.
Built to endure, the BL2/EX includes a dust-resistant body, enclosed motor, and Hardox® wear soles, ensuring long-lasting durability. With hydraulically adjustable hoods and a diverter valve, you can control material flow and optimize cutting performance based on terrain. Paired with your excavator, the BL2/EX transforms into a dynamic forestry asset powerful, precise, and effortlessly efficient.
