Attachments for heavy equipment

Attachments for heavy equipment in Australia

Updated 5 November 2026

An attachment for heavy equipment in Australia costs from about A$118 for clamp-on tractor forks to around A$5,995 for a dozer blade. Most grapples, rippers and rock grabs sit between A$649 and A$4,900. For current offers for your machine, describe it in a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Rules and warranty to check

The Work Health and Safety Regulations list plant and plant designs that need registration in Schedule 5, so ask the seller whether your attachment or machine is on that list before you pay. Guidelines for earthmoving machinery in Australia focus on safe operation, so ask how the attachment is rated for your machine's weight. Under the Australian Consumer Law, a buyer can ask for repair, replacement, refund or cancellation if a product is faulty, whatever warranty the seller offers. Some manufacturers give six months on services, so ask for warranty terms in writing.

Season and timing

November is the last month of spring. Summer runs from December to February, which means hot days on site and long working hours in the heat, so plan delivery and fitting before the hottest weeks if the job starts in December. Hard ground often calls for a ripper or a rock grab, so match the attachment to the ground you work on. Ask the seller how quickly they can deliver to your city.

How it is bought and delivered

Prices are listed per item, and the listings do not always say whether GST is included, so ask for the total with GST and delivery to your city in writing. Sellers can deliver between Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide, and heavy items need a freight price, not just the item price. Use metric measurements when you describe the job: pin diameter and pin centre distance in millimetres, the machine weight in tonnes, and the attachment's rated load in kilograms.

What to put in your request

Name the machine make, model and weight class, the attachment type you need, and whether you want new or used. Add the pin size, your city, whether you want to buy or rent, and your budget. Sellers reply with their price, terms and delivery, and your contacts stay hidden until you decide who to contact.

Free for buyers. Describe the attachment in your own words in the chat, add a photo if you have one, and BlaBlaPrice's AI asks for anything missing before it looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Australia. If you are choosing a whole machine instead, compare with bulldozers and tractors or excavators, or start a request on the home page.
