Carriers for Tractors
We build two chainsaw carriers for tractors. Not for ATVs. Not for UTVs. Not for skid steers or anything else with ROPS tubing. Our entire company is focused on tractor accessories, and we build them to a standard where once they're mounted, you never think about them again.
The ITC Saw Boss
The Saw Boss is our premium option. It mounts to the loader or the ROPS, quick-detaches in seconds, and expands into a full modular system. Add a chain box. Add a basket for fuel and bar oil. Move it wherever the job demands. And if you read the spec sheet: it held 600 lb in a horizontal load test. A chainsaw weighs maybe 20 lb. This isn't about whether it's strong enough. It's about knowing exactly what you bought.
- 600 lb load test mounted horizontally, the worst-case direction
- True lifetime warranty — no fine print, no wear-item exclusions
- Quick-detach mount. Loader or ROPS installation.
- Modular: chain box and basket bolt directly to the carrier
- Available in five colors: Black, Red, Orange, Blue, Green
The ITC Fixed Mount
Not everyone needs modular. Some people want something solid, simple, and done. The Fixed Mount was built for that. All 11-gauge steel construction with formed bends for rigidity, an HDPE liner for chain protection, and integrated tool storage built directly into the structure. The most strength per dollar in its class.
- 420 lb load test mounted horizontally, the worst-case direction
- Built entirely from 11-gauge steel with formed bends adding structural rigidity
- Integrated storage for a wedge, files, and saw tools
- HDPE liner for chain protection, no metal-on-metal contact
- Most strength per dollar in its price class
Steel Carries the Load.
Plastic Protects the Saw.
The most important thing to understand about both carriers: the plastic does no structural work. The HDPE liner exists for one reason only — to protect the chain teeth and the saw's crankcase from metal contact. All load, vibration, and lateral force is handled entirely by the steel frame.
1/8" Steel, Bent for Rigidity
Both carriers use 1/8-inch American steel with two 90-degree bends. Those bends add an extreme amount of structural strength and eliminate any chance of flex or movement under load. The liner drops into that frame and never carries weight.
We have thousands of these in the field. As of writing this, we have never had a liner wear out and need replacement.
We Found a Weak Point in Early Saw Boss Models and Fixed It
Early Saw Boss units had a vulnerability: the side spacers could be pried out and snapped at the upper bolt. We found it, we fixed it. Steel support was added on all four sides of the liner so the entire assembly is now wrapped in steel. Nothing can pry out. Nothing can snap off.
If you have an older unit and have questions, reach out. We stand behind what we sell.
What Owners Say After Living With It
The useful feedback isn't in five-star reviews. It's in the patterns you find after hundreds of people have mounted it, run it hard for a season, and written about it honestly.
Saw Boss
Fixed Mount
Which One Is Right for You?
Both are built to the same standard. The difference is what you need the system to do.
- You want to move it between loader and ROPS
- You want quick-detach capability
- You want to expand into a chain box or basket later
- You want the strongest option with the fullest warranty
- You're building out a tractor that does serious work
- You want the most strength per dollar
- You don't need to move or detach it
- You want integrated tool storage in the structure
- You want something solid, simple, and completely done
- You're mounting it in one permanent spot on the tractor
Common Questions
What's the difference between the Saw Boss and the Fixed Mount?
The Saw Boss is modular and quick-detach. It mounts to your loader or ROPS and expands with a chain box and basket. The Fixed Mount is a single-location, permanent-install carrier: simpler, no quick-detach, but all 11-gauge steel with integrated tool storage and the best strength-to-cost ratio we offer.
What is the strongest chainsaw carrier for a tractor?
The ITC Saw Boss. Load tested at 600 lb mounted horizontally, which is the worst-case load direction. Backed by a true lifetime warranty with no exclusions.
What is the best value chainsaw carrier for a tractor?
The ITC Fixed Mount. All 11-gauge steel construction, HDPE liner for chain protection, integrated tool storage, and 420 lb horizontal load tested. The most strength per dollar in its price class.
Do you make these for tractors only?
Yes. We are focused entirely on tractor accessories. We don't build universal-fit products for every machine with ROPS tubing. Our designs are specific to tractors and built around the mounting geometry, load conditions, and use cases that tractor owners actually face.
Can I add a chain box and basket to the Saw Boss later?
Yes. The Saw Boss is the base of a modular system. The chain box and multi-purpose basket both bolt directly onto the carrier. You can start with the Saw Boss alone and add components as your setup evolves.
Add the Chain Box + Basket
The Saw Boss chain box and basket combo puts everything in one place: saw, chain, fuel, and bar oil, all organized on a detachable modular mounting platform.
