Cat B-Prefix hydraulic hammers, available in B4(s) and B6(s) silenced and B4 and B6 non-silenced versions, are designed for “plug-and-play” operation with a range of compact equipment. The hammers are suited for skid steer loaders, multi-terrain loaders, compact track loaders, mini hydraulic excavators (3- to 8-ton operating weights), and backhoe loaders working in a range of construction and light-demolition applications, including site prep, landscaping, masonry, and concrete breaking.

The hammers have a simple industry-standard modular design with two moving parts in the piston and valve, while flat-top mounting enables compatibility with a full complement of brackets. Brushings are field-replaceable, and the lower brushing can be rotated 90 degrees for improved wear and performance. The hammers include a toolbox that contains a charging kit, hammer paste, and spare parts. Additionally, housings are designated to facilitate common maintenance items.

Tool types for the new hammers include moil, cone, parallel and transverse chisel, and blunt, allowing the hammer to be adapted to an extensive range of applications.
