KX Excavator Tree Shears – Strength, Versatility & Speed

kx-tree-shears

At Solaris Attachments, we proudly distribute KX excavator tree shears, engineered for performance, adaptability, and reliability. Built from premium-grade steel, these attachments combine lightweight design with exceptional cutting force, making them a must-have for forestry, land clearing, and roadside maintenance.

What makes KX shears stand out is their modular design—the blade can be removed in minutes, instantly transforming the attachment from a powerful shear into a heavy-duty grapple. This dual-functionality eliminates the need to swap attachments, saving operators both time and money.

With Solaris Attachments, you get not only the industry’s leading shear-grapple combo but also the support and expertise to keep your operation running smoothly.
