Bradco Adaptor Plates

An adaptor plate allows you to connect attachments with different mounting systems to your skid steer or loader. Bradco Adaptor Plates convert between universal quick attach, brand-specific mounts, and older connection styles, expanding your attachment compatibility without purchasing new equipment.

Yes, adaptor plates bridge compatibility gaps between various manufacturers. Bradco Adaptor Plates connect attachments designed for Bobcat, Cat, John Deere, Case, and other mounting configurations, allowing you to use mixed-brand attachments on a single carrier machine.

Adaptor plates add weight between your machine and attachment, which slightly reduces available payload capacity. Factor in the plate weight when calculating total load limits. However, the productivity gained from attachment versatility typically outweighs minor capacity reductions for most applications.

Initial adaptor plate installation typically takes 15 to 30 minutes depending on the mounting configuration. Once installed, the plate remains on your machine or attachment, allowing quick tool changes without repeated installation. This saves significant time compared to manual mounting conversions.

One adaptor plate works with multiple attachments sharing the same mounting style. If your attachments have different connection types, you may need multiple plates or a universal adaptor system. Evaluate your attachment inventory to determine which Bradco Adaptor Plate configuration maximizes compatibility.
