- Grapple arms feature integrated mechanical stop to reduce cylinder load when open
Improved grapple capacity
-
A 620-mm (24.4-in.) wide grapple arm and grapple stance of 1540 mm (60.6 in.) on the 1676-mm or 1829-mm (66-in. or 72-in.) wide grapples or 1660 mm (65.3 in.) on 1981-mm or 2134-mm (78-in. or 84-in.) wide grapples that allow for easier grappling of wide, difficult material

GS-Series Scrap Grapples are ideal for a variety of applications
Overview
GS-Series Scrap Grapples are designed for scrap handling, recycling center, disaster cleanup, and jobsite cleanup applications that require grappling power to handle material.
Benefits
- Each unit includes two independent-action grapples that allow different-sized objects to be picked up in each grapple Greaseable and hardened 35-mm (1.375-in.) pins with increased cylinder specifications result in improved durability
- An improved hose routing over the previous series grapples eliminates the need for grapple cylinder stops on large frame G-Series Skid Steers
- Open sides on the scrap grapple models allow easy grappling of material that is wider than the bucket.
- For scrap applications where containing the material is required, bolt-on side plates are available
- Increased side cutter, side sheet, and back sheet plate thicknesses, combined with larger torque tubes result in heavy-duty bucket construction for the most demanding applications
- Scrap grapples feature convenient pre-drilled holes on the cutting edges for optional bolt-on, replaceable edge
