Product Description

Virnig Cold Planer | Models PLR18 To PLR48 | Widths 18" To 48" | Hydraulic Flow 26 To 50 GPM | For Skid Steer & Track Loaders

DESCRIPTION

The Virnig Skid Steer Cold Planer is a high-performance milling attachment engineered to cut through asphalt and concrete with precision, speed, and reliability. Built for contractors, road crews, and property maintenance professionals, this attachment delivers the versatility and control needed for patching, resurfacing, and full-depth removal projects.

Designed for high-flow skid steers and track loaders (26–50 GPM), the Virnig Cold Planer combines direct-drive hydraulic power with a planetary motor system for efficient, consistent cutting even in the toughest surfaces. Its exclusive user-friendly control system allows operators to toggle between five independent functions tilt, side shift, and dual side plate adjustments at the touch of a button, without complex sequences or extra wiring.

With its self-leveling, floating design, the planer automatically adapts to surface contours, ensuring smooth, uniform passes and professional-grade results. The plug-and-play electrical system connects easily to most skid and track loaders, making setup quick and hassle-free. Add the optional internal 55-gallon water tank to minimize dust and improve jobsite safety and visibility.

Whether you’re milling asphalt, trenching for utilities, or preparing pavement for resurfacing, the Virnig Cold Planer delivers exceptional control, minimal downtime, and maximum productivity built in the USA and made to outperform.
