OVERVIEW
FEATURES AT A GLANCE
High Performance Less Fuel Burn
- Move more tons per hour with faster cycle times.
- Increase hydraulic flow capacity up to 160 percent with a new rotation system.
- Improve your overall fill factor up to 140-200 percent because of refined tine curvature.
- Cat Machines are pre-programmed with optimum performance settings for your grapple to maximize the pairing and efficiency of the machine and grapple.
Long Lasting Quality
- Grapple life is prolonged because of lighter, force distributing cast pieces in place of welds.
- Prevent cylinders from overextending, and avert unnecessary wear on hinge points and tine tips with heavy duty, abrasion resistant upper and lower stops on the grapple's housing.
- Strength you can count on. Solid construction inner tines and tips are built of high grade steel, resisting abrasion and metal-on-metal wear. Hinge points are cast eliminating weak points on the frame.
- Increase wear life with easy to replace, cast tine tips.
Easy to Maintain
- Spend more time working with decreased maintenance time.
- Usage before first service interval is increased up to 250 percent and ground level grease points are safer and easier to use.
- Integral hydraulic components have been rerouted, decreasing tension on hoses and eliminating interference with materials.
- Easy access to the hydraulics makes maintenance quicker, so more time can be spent moving materials.
- An optional cylinder guard is available to protect hydraulic hoses from materials.
- Maintain a safe working environment by using the Mounting Bracket Aid which allows the bracket to stay in an upright position while installing the grapple to the machine.
Options for Specific Applications
- Meet your specific needs with semi-open or closed tine style options.
- Semi-open tines work best for applications where larger steel scrap or pipes and beams are being moved.
- Closed tines are optimal for smaller, shredded materials.
- GC Grapples are lighter, which make them the ideal choice for recycling applications.
- Standard Grapples have been optimized for large and shredded scrap materials.
