GrabTec is pleased to announce the availability of its revolutionary new Compact Grapple/Bucket combo for Skid Steer and Compact Wheel Loaders. The Model GS features a patent-pending “Reach and Pull” design, providing unmatched high-capacity material handling combined with the quality people expect in a Grabtec product.
The patent-pending Reach and Pull motion of the grapple offers over 6 feet of opening, powerful grabbing capability and precision material control unlike any other grapple. And most importantly, the specialized components are integrated into the compact grapple; they do not project into the work space or obstruct the view from the cab.
Many conventional grapples can achieve a wide opening or close the teeth all the way inside the bucket. But few can do both, and none can do so with the power and precision of the Grabtec model GS grapple. As one customer noted “This is a great idea. I’ve always thought grapples should be made this way.”“The trick is keeping the design simple” says Michael Feilmeier, owner of Agile Manufacturing and GrabTec.
“We know from the many years of building grapples for much larger equipment that simple is better. However, the main focus is on performance. This new model offers better performance than anything else out there and is manufactured by a name people trust. Performance and quality equate to value, and that’s what our customers are used to from us.”
Available at GrabTec dealers everywhere, the model GS Grapple comes mated to a heavy duty 72” bucket. Also included in the combo package are the required hoses and flat faced connectors. A bolt on cutting edge is optional.
