HAVE PEACE OF MIND WITH OUR KUBOTA SVL97-2S BALLISTIC SKID STEER DOOR & TOP GUARD!

     At Heavy Equipment Armor, we are devoted to delivering high-performance equipment you need to get the job done. From construction equipment to forestry guards, we provide extra protection to your operators and your machine so you can complete your work safely.

     The Kubota skid steer SVL97 guarding we design, and produce aren't universal fits, we don't cut corners making a one-size-fits-all product. Rather, we find the best possible fit for each machine to ensure the best performance when it comes to the safety of you and your workers. Our Skid Steer line now includes forestry guard enhancements specifically engineered for the brand new KUBOTA SVL97-2S. 

     In 2021, Kubota announced their newest addition to the SVL lineup with the Kubota SVL97-2 Compact Track Loader. This new compact track loader delivers superior breakout force and lifting capacity, outstanding stability and a wide, comfortable operator area. Kubota's new rear-view camera increases your visibility and the safety on your job, while Kubota Telematics connects your Kubota to the tools you use to give you information like, accumulated hours, fuel level, location, temperatures and more! This incredibly capable compact track loader from Kubota can certainly get the job done. Rated to operate with 3,200lbs and a bucket breakout force of over 7,961lbs, there is plenty of power to be had in a small, heavy package.

    

While all this strength and stability come in handy when you've got a job to do, it can also mean that you need to proceed with caution. The kinds of weight that this machine is ready to handle can sometimes surprise you. From loads shifting unexpectedly to materials giving way in an instant, you'll want to make sure you can trust the barrier between you and any incoming force. Implements were made to make your life easy, but that doesn't mean they're always safe. Our goal is to help provide peace of mind with our Kubota 97 Skid Steer Door & Top Guards. Anytime you're working with power, whether you're hammering at stone, hauling away trees, or mulching over rocky ground, things can turn dangerous because of things that aren't under your control. 

Kubota Skid Steer Armor you can trust!

     We specialize in working with steel guarding and polycarbonate products that always make the grade. Ballistic doors, and enhanced guards can all work within the setup that your Kubota SVL 97-2 came with, without sacrificing any functionality. Thanks to the custom fit, you'll still be able to lift the cab for service and work the door with the arms raised.

     The proof of our strength lies in the testing. The polycarbonate we use as part of our Kubota skid steer armor is rated at UL752 Level 1. This means that even though you've got a clear view going out, there's isn't much that can get in. We designed our pieces to withstand the force of a ballistic assault equal to multiple hits from a 9mm bullet traveling over 1,000 feet per second.

     The Kubota SVL97-2 Forestry Guarding Package you're buying from us isn't milled or drilled, but many other companies who are literally cutting corners can't make the same guarantee. It can be cheaper to mass produce a form than alter it to fit a specific model, but the costs come back in durability. These products generally won't make it above a rating for heavy impact once they've been altered to fit hinges and handles, which leave them at the whim of micro-fractures.

    

Our superior systems aren't only going to bolster the strength of your machines, they'll be available with very little wait. We can have the parts you need with a seven-day turnaround. When they arrive, you can be confident of their fit once you firmly secure them with heavy-duty bolts that fit into the openings your skid steer already has. These perfect-fit, Kubota 97 Skid Steer Door & Top Guards that HEA provides weren't born on a whim. Decades of experience working with industrial forestry equipment led to the development of custom safeguards to protect both operators and machines from the dangers that come with the work. Expansion of the production was fueled by an industry in search of high-quality products, and HEA was born. 

    The integrated hydraulic oil cooler from HEA greatly reduces the risk of overheating in skid steers and hydraulically powered attachments when operating in demanding applications and hot work environments. The automatic thermostatically controlled fan provides adequate cooling to the system whenever needed to boost machine efficiency, even when an attachment is not being used.

     It is integrated into the enhanced Kubota Cab Guard and sits neatly on the roof. The guarding reduces any potential impact damage and it is less susceptible to vibration, back pressure, and debris build-up. 

Skid Steer oil coolers help:

  • Maintain the correct temperatures.
  • Extend the lifespan of the machine’s components.
  • Improves efficiency.
  • Reduces the cost of maintenance and repairs.
  • 86,000 BTU of cooling capacity up to 40 GPM.

     We're ready to help you protect your most valuable assets on the job – your people. And you do that by protecting your machines with HEA's Kubota SVL Forestry Guards.
