The Cat 963 is a track loader rental for contractors who need higher bucket capacity, pushing power,
traction, and material handling capability than a smaller track loader can provide. With a 3.5 CY bucket and an operating weight of 45,000 lbs, the Cat 963 is a strong fit for site development, backfilling, grading support, clearing, truck loading, stockpiling, utility work, roadwork support, and jobs where tracked stability matters.

This machine is best used when the job needs loader functionality with crawler-style traction. It gives crews a strong option for moving, loading, carrying, pushing, and backfilling material in conditions where wheeled equipment may not be the best fit.

About the Cat 963

The Cat 963 gives contractors a larger track loader option for jobs where traction, stability, pushing strength, and loading capacity all matter. Compared with the Cat 953, the Cat 963 provides more operating weight and bucket capacity, making it a practical fit for heavier material handling, larger backfill tasks, and more demanding site development work.

This machine works well on commercial construction sites, utility projects, roadwork support jobs, land clearing, site development, and heavier backfill work. Crews can use it to move dirt, gravel, debris, base material, and spoil while supporting excavation, grading, cleanup, stockpiling, and material staging.

The Cat 963 is useful when the job calls for both loader functionality and tracked traction. Its value is in giving contractors one machine that can push, load, carry, backfill, and work across changing ground conditions.

Best Uses for the Cat 963

  • Backfilling trenches or excavated areas
  • Site grading support
  • Truck loading
  • Clearing debris and brush
  • Moving dirt, gravel, spoil, and base material
  • Commercial site development
  • Utility project support
  • Roadwork support
  • Stockpiling material
  • Working on uneven or soft ground
  • General jobsite cleanup
  • Material staging and support work

Why Rent This Track Loader?

Renting the Cat 963 helps contractors solve short-term loading, pushing, grading, and backfilling needs without adding another track loader to the fleet permanently. It is useful when a project needs more tracked loading capacity than a smaller machine can provide, when owned equipment is already committed, or when a wheel loader may not be the best fit for site conditions.

The Cat 963 can also help prevent mismatched equipment on unstable or uneven jobsites. If a wheeled machine struggles with traction or if a dozer lacks the loading function needed for the work, a track loader can fill the gap. The Cat 963 gives contractors a rental option that combines pushing strength with material handling capability.
