Skid steer attachments for rent in the UAE normally come with the machine rather than on their own, and each tool adds to the day rate. This page covers which tools can be arranged with our CAT 226B, what they typically add to the price, and how to book so the right tool arrives with the machine. To work out which tool suits the job, see the skid steer attachment guide.
Attachments you can hire with our CAT 226B
A bucket is standard. The tools below can be arranged, depending on availability, so confirm each one for your date.
- Pallet forks: often included, or up to about AED 60 a day. Say what the pallets weigh and how they are stacked.
- Hydraulic breaker (hammer): about AED 150–300 a day. Give the material and its thickness.
- Auger: about AED 100–200 a day. Give the hole diameter, the depth and the number of holes.
- Trencher: about AED 150–250 a day. Give the trench width, depth and length.
- Broom: about AED 80–180 a day. Say what surface is being swept and how large the area is.
These are typical UAE market ranges from suppliers’ published rates, checked in September 2026, not our price list. Your written quote depends on the machine, the duration, the operator, the delivery distance and the site conditions.
How attachment rental is priced
An attachment is an add-on to the machine, not a separate hire. The skid steer itself is typically about AED 600–1,000 a day with an operator, so at market rates a day of breaker work comes to about AED 750–1,300 before delivery. The bucket, and often the forks, sit inside the normal day rate; powered tools usually carry their own daily charge. Ask whether the attachment changes the day rate, and get one combined figure in writing. The Bobcat rental price guide covers the machine rate, the operator and delivery.
Why hydraulics decide which tool fits
Powered tools such as augers and hammers run from the loader’s auxiliary hydraulics. The CAT 226B has them, which is what makes these tools possible, but not every tool suits every machine. Tell the team what the tool has to do, such as break a 15 cm slab or drill 30 cm holes, rather than naming a tool model. Forks work differently: they are limited by the machine’s 680 kg rated capacity, so heavier pallets need a forklift. See the CAT 226B specifications for the full figures.
Book the attachment with the machine
- Ask for the attachment in your first message, not on delivery morning, because each tool has to be confirmed for your date.
- Describe the material: breaking reinforced concrete is a different job from lifting old interlock bedding.
- If the job needs two tools, such as a breaker and a bucket to load the pieces, ask for both in the same booking.
- If the attachment will work all day, say so, because continuous breaking is planned differently from occasional use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I rent a skid steer attachment without the machine?
Generally not. Attachments are normally hired fitted to the supplier’s machine with its operator, because compatibility and responsibility for damage are hard to manage on someone else’s loader.
How much does a breaker add to a Bobcat rental?
As a typical UAE market range, a hydraulic breaker adds about AED 150–300 a day to the machine rate. Describe the material and its thickness, and get the combined figure in writing.
Which attachments are included in the price?
The bucket is standard with the CAT 226B, and forks are often included. Other tools are normally charged as an add-on, so confirm each one on the quote.
