Construction equipment rental and attachments
Tristar UVS rents earthmoving, material handling and site infrastructure machinery to contractors, EPC developers and industrial site managers in Chennai. Every machine is configured to the application, fitted with the right attachment where needed, and supported by on-site technicians, on terms that keep capital expenditure off your books.
The fleet
Our rental fleet at a glance
Four machine groups, each chosen for a specific kind of site.
| Machine | Built for | Typical applications |
|---|---|---|
| Mini excavators and skid steer loaders | Confined urban footprints, underground trenching, indoor demolition | Utility trenching, road repairs, landscaping, basement excavation |
| Super Long Front (SLF) excavators | Deep excavation, slope trimming, marine desilting | Canal desilting, deep foundation pits, dam maintenance, port breakwaters |
| Electric forklifts and material handling units | Manufacturing facilities, warehouse depots, indoor project yards | Palletised goods, plant maintenance, site store logistics |
| Mobile lighting masts | Continuous night shifts and site safety | Highway paving, mining overburden pits, emergency repairs |
For hire
Mini excavators and skid steer loaders
Confined urban sites, basements and indoor work areas often leave contractors with two poor choices: a machine too big to get in, or slow manual labour.
Our mini excavators and skid steer loaders are agile, high-hydraulic-output machines built for exactly these spaces. Their compact size lets them work where hand digging or hand breaking would otherwise be the only option, and their hydraulic output delivers strong breakout force in a small footprint. They can carry breakers, rock splitters and handling tools.
Applications
- City utility trenching and underground trenching
- Road repairs where only a small area can be closed
- Landscaping and site finishing
- Basement excavation
- Indoor demolition
For hire
Super Long Front (SLF) excavators
Some jobs are a question of reach.
Our SLF excavators are extended-reach earthmovers built for deep foundation excavation, slope trimming and marine desilting, such as canal desilting and port breakwaters. They deliver extended operational reach without compromising counterweight stability or cycle times.
| Application | Why an SLF excavator helps |
|---|---|
| River and canal desilting | Works from the bank to reach the channel bed |
| Deep foundation pits | Excavates to depth from the pit edge |
| Dam maintenance | Reaches material in hard-to-access areas |
| Port breakwaters | Handles material at extended distance |
| Slope trimming | Shapes embankments from a stable position |
For hire
Electric forklifts and material handling units
Indoor handling needs machines that don't fill the building with exhaust or noise.
Our zero-emission, low-noise electric forklifts and material handling units are built for manufacturing facilities, warehouse depots and indoor project yards, for palletised goods movement, plant maintenance and site store logistics.
- Instant torqueResponsive lifting and moving.
- Zero indoor emissionsSafer air in enclosed spaces.
- Low maintenanceLower overheads than combustion machines.
For hire
Mobile LED lighting masts
Night shifts are only as safe and productive as the light they work under.
Our towable, heavy-duty LED lighting towers are built for continuous night shifts and high-visibility site safety, on highway paving, mining overburden pits and emergency infrastructure repairs.
- Wide LED coverageLight across the whole work area.
- Low fuel consumptionEconomical over long night shifts.
- Fast site setupLighting moves with the work front.
Add-ons
Hydraulic attachments
The right attachment turns a standard machine into the right tool for the job.
We supply application-matched attachments and fit them to suit the host machine and site conditions. Our attachment matching considers the host machine and its hydraulic capability, the material, and site constraints such as confined space or nearby structures.
Wear parts such as rock splitter wedges, drill bits and secondary breaking accessories are available through Tristar Construction Mart.
Hydraulic rock splitters
For breaking rock and concrete in restricted urban excavation.
Hydraulic breakers
For rock, concrete and demolition work.
Site handling tools
For moving and placing materials.
