Grapples for Heavy Material Handling — Precision and Safety
Precision-engineered grapples tackle demolition, brush clearing and recycling jobs with powerful tines and smooth hydraulic motion for secure grabbing and lifting. Quick-attach compatibility and integrated safety locks enhance operator control and reduce risk on demanding sites. From skid-steer grapples to excavator grapples, the robust design delivers efficient material handling and minimal downtime. Designed for heavy-duty use, these tools help move bulk debris or brush rapidly with confidence.

Root, Rock & Stump Grapples — Clamp Down, Clear Out, Cash In
If it tangles, rolls, or fights back—these grapples end the argument. Choose root grapples for brush/logs, rock grapples for tight stone retention, stump grapples for rip-and-lift demolition, and vertical/fork grapples for palletized or odd loads. Heavy cylinders, greasable pins, and reinforced tine design deliver dead-serious grip day after day.
Spec Highlights
- Twin cylinders • guarded hoses • high-flow-safe valving
- Hardened pivot bushings • serviceable, zero-slop operation
- Optimized tine spacing for brush vs stone applications
Use-Case Wins
- Land clearing • forestry clean-up • demolition sorting
- Storm debris and disaster response (fastest ROI tool on the lot)
- Log & rock handling with true control
Pro Tip: For storm seasons, run a wider root grapple (78–84") to reduce cycles and maximize truck time.
FAQs
Root vs rock grapple—what’s the difference?
Root grapples use wider tine spacing for brush, limbs, and logs. Rock grapples use tighter spacing (and often a rock dam) to capture stone and compacted debris.
Will this fit my tractor or CTL?
Yes—universal quick-attach plate connects to most skid steers, CTLs, and SSQA-equipped tractors.
What cylinder size and pressure are these rated for?
HD/XHD grapples use large-bore cylinders matched for typical 3,000–3,500 PSI systems. Hoses/valving are protected against pinch and abrasion.
Can I add a third-function kit to my tractor for the grapple?
Yes—most tractors just need a front hydraulic (third function) kit. Tell us your make/model; we’ll point you to the right solution.
Best width for land clearing?
General rule: match or slightly exceed track width. 72–78" for mid-frames; 78–84"+ for larger CTLs.
Maintenance to keep clamps strong?
Grease pivots, check hose wrap/guards, inspect cylinder pins/retainers, and keep tines straight—spot heat and correct early if needed.
