Bobcat Planer Milling Drums & Tools: What Rolling Wedge Supplies

A skid steer cold planer attachment is a hydraulically powered milling unit mounted directly to rubber-tire or track skid steers. It houses a revolving milling drum fitted with specialized cutting tools that deconstruct hard surfaces like asphalt and concrete. Planer attachments enable contractors to transform standard skid steer machines into agile road milling equipment for urban streets, utility cuts, and tight workspaces.

Operating weights for cold planer attachments vary depending on the drum width, side-shift mechanism, and depth control configuration. While exact attachment weights depend on the specific Bobcat model and drum size being deployed, these hydraulic milling units are engineered to match standard skid steer operating capacities, maintaining stability and forward tractive power during demanding asphalt and concrete milling passes.

Rolling Wedge milling drums for compatible skid steer planer attachments are available in drum cut widths of 18, 24, 30, and 40 inches. These drums integrate into compatible planer attachments used on skid steers from manufacturers such as Bobcat, Caterpillar, Kubota, Roadhog, Simex, and Virnig, delivering high-productivity milling across varied patch and joint specifications.

Yes. Rolling Wedge cutters are engineered to handle mixed asphalt and concrete surfaces in a single pass without tool swaps. Their rolling-wedging-lifting action slices through concrete, asphalt, and even certain grades of rebar and wire mesh without jamming or stalling, eliminating the need to stop and switch traditional carbide picks between different pavement materials.

Traditional carbide picks use a pointed hammer-and-chisel impact that creates vibration, machine bounce, and high friction. Rolling Wedge milling tools feature a rotating wheel-and-shaft design with nine carbide teeth. The cutters continuously roll through the material, capitalizing on low tensile strength to lift material away cleanly while running cooler and significantly reducing operator fatigue and machine wear.

Rolling Wedge offers a limited 20-day Try & Buy drum evaluation program for qualifying contractors. This evaluation allows qualifying operations to test the Rolling Wedge milling drum system directly on their jobsites before purchase. Prospective customers can contact Rolling Wedge directly at (309) 322-1600 to inquire about eligibility, scheduling, and specific terms for their planer attachment.
