Features At A Glance
Maximize Performance

- Maximum holding power and control from the cylinder valve.
- Interlocking legs designed to secure maximum or minimum load. The minimum opening of 5 in. (127 mm) can be used to handle single, small stems.
- Precise matching of the bearing surface to the rotator increases the strength of mounting, reducing side loads on the mounting bolts.
- Efficiently align to, grab, pick, and sort with powerful rotations motor and cylinders.
- Keep your grapple safe while traveling by securing it with the grapple heel preventing swing and impact.
- Optimal for applications such as: high-volume loading, sorting, high-decking in millyard, and shovel logging.
Rugged Durability

Simple Serviceability
